Famous quotes containing the word begins:

    “Competition has been shown to be useful up to a certain point and no further, but cooperation, which is the thing we must strive for today, begins where competition leaves off.”

    “Wedding: the point at which a man stops toasting a woman and begins roasting her.”
    —Helen Rowland (1875–1950)

    “The author’s conviction on this day of New Year is that music begins to atrophy when it departs too far from the dance; that poetry begins to atrophy when it gets too far from music; but this must not be taken as implying that all good music is dance music or all poetry lyric. Bach and Mozart are never too far from physical movement.”
    —Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
