Famous quotes containing the words stroke and/or side:
“If thou and nature can so gently part,
The stroke of death is as a lover’s pinch,
Which hurts, and is desired.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Strictly speaking, one cannot legislate love, but what one can do is legislate fairness and justice. If legislation does not prohibit our living side by side, sooner or later your child will fall on the pavement and I’ll be the one to pick her up. Or one of my children will not be able to get into the house and you’ll have to say, “Stop here until your mom comes here.” Legislation affords us the chance to see if we might love each other.”
—Maya Angelou (b. 1928)
