Grown

Famous quotes containing the word grown:

“Poor men have grown to be rich men,
And rich men grown to be poor again,
And I am running to Paradise;
And many a darling wit’s grown dull
That tossed a bare heel when at school,
Now it has filled an old sock full....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“I am sure ‘tis safer to
Avoid what’s grown than question how ‘tis born.”

without words within me, saw
as if my eyes
had grown bigger and knew
how to look without
being told what it was they saw.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
