Grown

Famous quotes containing the word grown:

    “The work is done,” grown old he thought,
    “According to my boyish plan;
    Let the fools rage, I swerved in nought,
    Something to perfection brought;”
    But louder sang that ghost “What then?”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    The religion of the Bible is the best in the world. I see the infinite value of religion. Let it be always encouraged. A world of superstition and folly have grown up around its forms and ceremonies. But the truth in it is one of the deep sentiments in human nature.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    She has not grown uncivil
    As narrow natures would
    And called the pleasures evil
    Happier days thought good....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
