One

Famous quotes containing the word one:

    One by one they appear in
    the darkness: a few friends, and
    a few with historical
    names. How late they start to shine!
    but before they fade they stand
    perfectly embodied,
    Thom Gunn (b. 1929)

    The great and almost only comfort about being a woman is that one can always pretend to be more stupid than one is and no one is surprised.
    Freya Stark (b. 1893–1993)

    For there is no friend like a sister
    In calm or stormy weather;
    To cheer one on the tedious way,
    To fetch one if one goes astray,
    To lift one if one totters down,
    To strengthen whilst one stands.
    Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)
