Famous quotes containing the word fears:
“Dead power is everywhere among us—in the forest, chopping down the songs; at night in the industrial landscape, wasting and stiffening the new life; in the streets of the city, throwing away the day. We wanted something different for our people: not to find ourselves an old, reactionary republic, full of ghost-fears, the fears of death and the fears of birth. We want something else.”
—Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)
“He who punishes the vanquished fears not the victor.”
—Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)
“A superior person desires truth more than he fears poverty.”
—Chinese proverb.
