Brought

Famous quotes containing the word brought:

    Single mothers have as much to teach their children as married mothers and as much love to share—maybe more. Yet their motives are often labeled selfish and single-minded—never mind all the babies brought into the world to snag husbands, “save” faltering marriages or produce heirs.
    —Anne Cassidy. “Every Child Should Have a Father But....,” McCall’s (March 1985)

    Alas, day, you brought light,
    You trailed splendour
    You showed us god:
    I salute you, most precious one,
    But I go to a new place,
    Another life.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    Anyone who has been to an English public school will always feel comparatively at home in prison. It is the people brought up in the gay intimacy of the slums ... who find prison so soul-destroying.
    Evelyn Waugh (1903–1966)
