Called

Famous quotes containing the word called:

    It has been so written, for the most part, that the times it describes are with remarkable propriety called dark ages. They are dark, as one has observed, because we are so in the dark about them.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Had I but awakened from sleep
    And called her name, she had heard
    It may be, and had not stirred,
    That now, it may be, has found
    The horn’s sweet note and the tooth of the hound.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    A name? Oh, Jesus Christ. Ah, God, I’ve been called by a million names all my life. I don’t want a name. I’m better off with a grunt or a groan for a name.
    Bernardo Bertolucci (b. 1940)
