Famous quotes containing the word belongs:
“A penniless man who has no ties to bind him is master of himself at any rate, but a luckless wretch who is in love no longer belongs to himself, and may not take his own life. Love makes us almost sacred in our own eyes; it is the life of another that we revere within us; then and so begins for us the cruelest trouble of all.”
—Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
“It belongs to the humanity of a master to warn his pupil about himself.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Peg: Who are you?
Alice: I’m nobody.
Peg: Oh now, don’t sulk. We’re all nobody. “Nobody” is anybody who belongs to somebody. So if you belong to nobody, you’re somebody. Understand?”
—Abraham Polonsky (b. 1910)
