Beginning

Famous quotes containing the word beginning:

    It was beginning winter,
    An in-between time,
    The landscape still partly brown:
    The bones of weeds kept swinging in the wind,
    Above the blue snow.
    Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)

    As soon as you begin to say “We have always done things this way—perhaps that might be a better way,” conscious law-making is beginning. As soon as you begin to say “We do things this way—they do things that way—what is to be done about it?” men are beginning to feel towards justice, that resides between the endless jar of right and wrong.
    Helen M. Cam (1885–1968)

    No. We haven’t seen the end of them. We’ve only had a close view of the beginning of what may be the end of us.
    —Ted Sherdeman. Gordon Douglas. Dr. Medford (Edmund Gwenn)
