Famous quotes containing the word bring:
“If you are not willing to lose all the labour you have been at to break the will of your child, to bring his will into subjection to yours that it may be afterward subject to the will of God, there is one advice which, though little known, should be particularly attended. . . .

—John Welsley (18th century)

Wherewith they bring their babies to rest;
And lullaby can I sing too,
As womanly as can the best.”
