Born

Famous quotes containing the word born:

    “As kings are begotten and born like other men, it is to be presumed that they are of the human species; and perhaps, had they the same education, they might prove like other men. But, flattered from their cradles, their hearts are corrupted, and their heads are turned, so that they seem to be a species by themselves.... Flattery cannot be too strong for them; drunk with it from their infancy, like old drinkers, they require dreams.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    “No man who knows aught, can be so stupid to deny that all men naturally were born free.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “True, I am young, but for souls nobly born valor doesn’t await the passing of years.”
    —Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)
