Attacks

Famous quotes containing the word attacks:

    The gray glaze of the past attacks all know-how....

    Neither the wrath of Heaven nor the attacks of enemies
    are as fatal as Pleasure alone when she infects the mind.
    Silius Italicus (26–101)

    There exists, at the bottom of all abasement and misfortune, a last extreme which rebels and joins battle with the forces of law and respectability in a desperate struggle, waged partly by cunning and partly by violence, at once sick and ferocious, in which it attacks the prevailing social order with the pin-pricks of vice and the hammer-blows of crime.
    Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
