Remained

Famous quotes containing the word remained:

    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)

    they remained free in the heavenly chasm,
    remained angels, but dreaming angels,
    each imbued with the mysteries of the other.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    He remained in the grip of a certain devil whom the modern world knows as self-consciousness, and whom the mediaeval, with dimmer vision, worshipped as asceticism.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)
