Drew

Famous quotes containing the word drew:

    struggled scarce—
    Consented, and was dead—

    And We—We placed the Hair—
    And drew the Head erect—
    And then an awful leisure was
    Belief to regulate—
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    The inspired scribbler always has the gift for gossip in our common usage ... he or she can always inspire the commonplace with an uncommon flavor, and transform trivialities by some original grace or sympathy or humor or affection.
    —Elizabeth Drew (1887–1965)

    As I drew a still fresher soil about the rows with my hoe, I disturbed the ashes of unchronicled nations who in primeval years lived under these heavens, and their small implements of war and hunting were brought to the light of this modern day.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
