Dividing

Famous quotes containing the word dividing:

    When a man and a woman have an overwhelming passion for each other, it seems to me, in spite of such obstacles dividing them as parents or husband, that they belong to each other in the name of Nature, and are lovers by Divine right, in spite of human convention or the laws.
    —Sébastien-Roch Nicolas De Chamfort (1741–1794)

    A curtain of wax dividing them from the bride flight,
    The upflight of the murderess into a heaven that loves her.
    Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)

    While you are divided from us by geographical lines, which are imaginary, and by a language which is not the same, you have not come to an alien people or land. In the realm of the heart, in the domain of the mind, there are no geographical lines dividing the nations.
    Anna Howard Shaw (1847–1919)
