Wagner Station Retained

Famous quotes containing the words wagner, station and/or retained:

    ... our lives are like soap operas. We can go for months and not tune in to them, then six months later we look in and the same stuff is going on.
    —Jane Wagner (b. 1935)

    Say first, of God above, or Man below,
    What can we reason, but from what we know?
    Of Man what see we, but his station here,
    From which to reason, or to which refer?
    Thro’ worlds unnumber’d tho’ the God be known,
    ‘Tis ours to trace him only in our own.

    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    Those of us who were brought up as Christians and have lost our faith have retained the sense of sin without the saving belief in redemption. This poisons our thought and so paralyses us in action.
    Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
