Grown

Famous quotes containing the word grown:

“Every man who has lived for fifty years has buried a whole world or even two; he has grown used to its disappearance and accustomed to the new scenery of another act: but suddenly the names and faces of a time long dead appear more and more often on his way, calling up series of shades and pictures kept somewhere, “just in case” in the endless catacombs of the memory, making him smile or sigh, and sometimes almost weep.”
—Alexander Herzen (1812–1870)

“Boys are capital fellows in their own way, among their mates; but they are unwholesome companions for grown people.”
—Charles Lamb (1775–1834)

“I feel as if my life had grown more outward when I can express it.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
