Remained

Famous quotes containing the word remained:

    In early times every sort of advantage tends to become a military advantage; such is the best way, then, to keep it alive. But the Jewish advantage never did so; beginning in religion, contrary to a thousand analogies, it remained religious. For that we care for them; from that have issued endless consequences.
    Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)

    Only one thing remained reachable, close and secure amid all losses: language.
    Paul Celan [Paul Antschel] (1920–1970)

    I have seen a thousand graves opened, and always perceived that whatever was gone, the teeth and hair remained of those who had died with them. Is not this odd? They go the very first things in youth & yet last the longest in the dust.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
