Grand

Famous quotes containing the word grand:

    What is grand is necessarily obscure to weak men. That which can be made explicit to the idiot is not worth my care.
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    We found nothing grand in the history of the Jews nor in the morals inculcated in the Pentateuch.... I know of no other books that so fully teach the subjection and degradation of woman.
    Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)

    It has been said that the immortality of the soul is a “grand peut-ĂȘtre”Mbut still it is a grand one. Everybody clings to it—the stupidest, and dullest, and wickedest of human bipeds is still persuaded that he is immortal.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
