Famous quotes containing the word cultured:

Stealing my breath of life, I will confess
I love this cultured hell that tests my youth!”

“Love is a great thing. It is not by chance that in all times and practically among all cultured peoples love in the general sense and the love of a man for his wife are both called love. If love is often cruel or destructive, the reasons lie not in love itself, but in the inequality between people.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

“The more cultured a man, the less fortunate he is.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
