Brought

Famous quotes containing the word brought:

    I complacently accepted the social order in which I was brought up. I probably would have continued in my complacency if the happy necessity of self-support had not fallen to my lot; if self-support had not deepened and widened my contacts and my experience.
    Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)

    ... we are most of us brought up in the notion that the highest motive for not doing a wrong is something irrespective of the beings who would suffer the wrong.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    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)
