Beginning

Famous quotes containing the word beginning:

    “Life seems to be an experience in ascending and descending. You think you’re beginning to live for a single aim—for self-development, or the discovery of cosmic truths—when all you’re really doing is to move from place to place as if devoted primarily to real estate.”
    —Margaret Anderson (1886–1973)

    “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.”
    —Bible: Hebrew Psalms, 111:10.

    “Stupid word, that. Period. In America it means “full stop” like in punctuation. That’s stupid as well. A period isn’t a full stop. It’s a new beginning. I don’t mean all that creativity, life-giving force, earth-mother stuff, I mean it’s a new beginning to the month, relief that you’re not pregnant, when you don’t have to have a child.”
    —Michelene Wandor (b. 1940)
