Give Birth

Famous quotes containing the words give and/or birth:

    The scholar requires hard and serious labor to give an impetus to his thought. He will learn to grasp the pen firmly so, and wield it gracefully and effectively, as an axe or a sword.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    My demon,
    too often undressed,
    too often a crucifix I bring forth,
    too often a dead daisy I give water to
    too often the child I give birth to
    and then abort....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
