“This is incredible that this section turned out with Venus, Serena and Clijsters, who you could certainly make a case are three of the favorites. Obviously, though, the sisters come in with a lot of question marks, based on their health.”
Patrick McEnroe
“An occultation of Venus is not half so difficult as an eclipse of the Sun, but because it comes seldom the world thinks it's a grand thing”
Mark Twain
“She is Venus when she smiles; / But she's Juno when she walks, / And Minerva when she talks.”
Ben Jonson
“GRACES, n. Three beautiful goddesses, Aglaia, Thalia and Euphrosyne, who attended upon Venus, serving without salary. They were at no expense for board and clothing, for they ate nothing to speak of and dressed according to the weather, wearing whatever breeze happened to be blowing.”
Ambrose Bierce
“It's no longer a warmth hidden in my veins: it's Venus entire and whole fastening on her prey.”
