Brought

Famous quotes containing the word brought:

    In great cities men are brought together by the desire of gain. They are not in a state of co-operation, but of isolation, as to the making of fortunes; and for all the rest they are careless of neighbours. Christianity teaches us to love our neighbour as ourself; modern society acknowledges no neighbour.
    Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)

    As in digging for precious metals in the mines, much earthy rubbish has first to be troublesomely handled and thrown out; so, in digging in one’s soul for the fine gold of genius, much dullness and common-place is first brought to light.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    Do I lack madmen, that you have brought this fellow to play the madman in my presence?
    Bible: Hebrew, 1 Samuel 21:15.

    A King, said of David who pretends to be mad.
