Brought

Famous quotes containing the word brought:

    A clever child brought up with a foolish one can itself become foolish. Man is so perfectable and corruptible he can become a fool through good sense.
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)

    Rhodora! if the sages ask thee why
    This charm is wasted on the earth and sky,
    Tell them, dear, that if eyes were made for seeing,
    Then Beauty is its own excuse for being:
    Why thou wert there, O rival of the rose!
    I never thought to ask, I never knew:
    But, in my simple ignorance, suppose
    The self-same Power that brought me there brought you.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Whoever thinks a lot—which is to say, “objectively”Mreadily forgets his own experiences, but not the thoughts that they have brought about.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
