Famous quotes containing the word changed:
“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)
“I am not sure how many sins I would recognize in the world. Some would surely be defused by changed circumstances. But I can imagine none that is more irredeemably sinful than the betrayal, the exploitation, of the young by those who should care for them.”
—Elizabeth Janeway (b. 1913)
“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)
