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.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I saw
    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)
