Began

Famous quotes containing the word began:

    Jesus was about thirty years old when he began his work.
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 3:23.

    What you don’t understand is that it is possible to be an atheist, it is possible not to know if God exists or why He should, and yet to believe that man does not live in a state of nature but in history, and that history as we know it now began with Christ, it was founded by Him on the Gospels.
    Boris Pasternak (1890–1960)

    Once we began to see our images
    Reflected in the mud and even dust,
    ‘Twas disillusion upon disillusion.
    We were lost piecemeal to the animals,
    Like people thrown out to delay the wolves.
    Nothing but fallibility was left us....
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
