Famous quotes containing the words the world and/or world:
“It is not quite the same when we are seventy-two as when we are twenty-seven; still I am glad of what is left, and wish we might both hold out till the victory we have sought is won, but all the same the victory is coming. In the aftertime the world will be the better for it.”
—Lucy Stone (18181893)
“By the by, if the English race had done nothing else, yet if they left the world the notion of a gentleman, they would have done a great service to mankind.”
—Gerard Manley Hopkins (18441889)
