Stronger

Famous quotes containing the word stronger:

    And we can get back to that raw state
    Of feeling, so long deemed
    Inconsequential and therefore appropriate to our later musings
    About religion, about migrations. What is restored
    Becomes stronger than the loss as it is remembered;
    Is a new, separate life of its own.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    For the “superior morality” of which we hear so much, we too would desire to be thankful: at the same time, it were but blindness to deny that this “superior morality” is properly rather an “inferior criminality” produced not by greater love of Virtue, but by greater perfection of Police; and of that far subtler and stronger Police, called Public Opinion.
    Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)

    She fair, divinely fair, fit love for Gods,
    Not terrible, though terror be in love,
    And beauty, not approached by stronger hate,
    Hate stronger under show of love well feigned—
    The way which to her ruin now I tend.”
    John Milton (1608–1674)
