Embrace

Famous quotes containing the word embrace:

    You must embrace the man you hate, if you cannot be justified in knocking him down.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    Let the will embrace the highest ideals freely and with infinite strength, but let action first take hold of what lies closest.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    I do seriously believe that if we can measure among the States the benefits resulting from the preservation of the Union, the rebellious States have the larger share. It destroyed an institution that was their destruction. It opened the way for a commercial life that, if they will only embrace it and face the light, means to them a development that shall rival the best attainments of the greatest of our States.
    Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)
