Increasing

Famous quotes containing the word increasing:

    When a man grows old his joy
    Grows more deep day after day,
    His empty heart is full at length
    But he has need of all that strength
    Because of the increasing Night
    That opens her mystery and fright.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Yet I doubt not through the ages one increasing purpose runs,
    And the thoughts of men are widened with the process of the suns.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    Everywhere I go I see increasing evidence of people swirling about in a human cesspit of their own making.
    James Anderton (b. 1932)
