Breeds

Famous quotes containing the word breeds:

“If from the earth we came, it was an earth
That bore us as a part of all the things
It breeds and that was lewder than it is.
Our nature is her nature. Hence it comes,
Since by our nature we grow old, earth grows
The same. We parallel the mother’s death.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

“He who desires but acts not, breeds pestilence.”
—William Blake (1757–1827)

“‘Tis much when sceptres are in children’s hands,
But more when envy breeds unkind division:
There comes the ruin, there begins confusion.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
