Brought

Famous quotes containing the word brought:

    Every new development for the last three centuries has brought men closer to a state of affairs in which absolutely nothing would be recognized in the whole world as possessing a claim to obedience except the authority of the State. The majority of people in Europe obey nothing else.
    Simone Weil (1909–1943)

    Well, something for a snowstorm to have shown
    The country’s singing strength thus brought together,
    That though repressed and moody with the weather
    Was nonetheless there ready to be freed
    And sing the wild flowers up from root and seed.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Since I was not bewitched in adolescence
    And brought to love,
    I will attend to the trees and their gracious silence,
    To winds that move.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
