Fallen

Famous quotes containing the word fallen:

“Can we love our children when they are homely, awkward, unkempt, flaunting the styles and friendships we don’t approve of, when they fail to be the best, the brightest, the most accomplished at school or even at home? Can we be there when their world has fallen apart and only we can restore their faith and confidence in life?”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)

“Like fallen apples, they will lose
Their sweetness at the bruise,
And then decay.”

The tyrannous wind, its strength fordone,
Is fallen back in the west”
