Fed

Famous quotes containing the word fed:

“Ever since I was a kid my folks fed me bigotry for breakfast and ignorance for supper. Never, not once did they ever make me feel proud of where I was born. That’s it. That was a cancer they put in me. No knowledge of my country. No pride. Just a hymn of hate.”
—Samuel Fuller (b. 1911)

“For man, maximum excitement is the confrontation of death and the skillful defiance of it by watching others fed to it as he survives transfixed with rapture.”
—Ernest Becker (1924–1974)

“Being fed by us you used us so
As that ungentle gull, the cuckoo’s bird,
Useth the sparrow.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
