Beginning

Famous quotes containing the word beginning:

    What we call birth
    Is but a beginning to be something else
    Than what we were before; and when we cease
    To be that something, then we call it death.
    Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

    The beginning of an acquaintance whether with persons or things is to get a definite outline of our ignorance.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    In my beginning is my end. In succession
    Houses rise and fall, crumble, are extended,
    Are removed, destroyed, restored, or in their place
    Is an open field, or a factory, or a by-pass.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
