One

Famous quotes containing the word one:

    Come, my pretender, my fritter,
    my bubbler, my chicken biddy!
    Oh succulent one,
    it is but one turn in the road
    and I would be a cannibal!
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    So Nature deals with us, and takes away
    Our playthings one by one, and by the hand
    Leads us to rest so gently, that we go
    Scarce knowing if we wish to go or stay,
    Being too full of sleep to understand
    How far the unknown transcends the what we
    know.
    Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)

    I gambled on having the strength to live two lives, one for myself and one for the world.
    Ruth Benedict (1887–1948)
