Famous quotes containing the word changed:
“Warm in December, cold in June, you say?
I dont suppose the waters changed at all.
You and I know enough to know its warm
Compared with cold, and cold compared with warm.
But all the funs in how you say a thing.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
“This whole day have I followed in the rocks,
And you have changed and flowed from shape to shape,
First as a raven on whose ancient wings
Scarcely a feather lingered, then you seemed
A weasel moving on from stone to stone....”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“Still we live meanly, like ants; though the fable tells us that we were long ago changed into men; like pygmies we fight with cranes; it is error upon error, and clout upon clout, and our best virtue has for its occasion a superfluous and evitable wretchedness. Our life is frittered away by detail.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
