Loved

Famous quotes containing the word loved:

“The same indignation that is said to have cleared the temple once will clear it again. The question is not about the weapon, but the spirit in which you use it. No man has appeared in America, as yet, who loved his fellow-man so well, and treated him so tenderly. He lived for him. He took up his life and he laid it down for him.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“We who were loved will never
unlive that crippling fever.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

“O memory! thou midway world
‘Twixt earth and paradise,
Where things decayed and loved ones lost
In dreamy shadows rise,”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
