Grant

Famous quotes containing the word grant:

    Not necessity, not desire—no, the love of power is the demon of mankind. Grant them everything, health, food, housing, entertainment—they are and remain unhappy and anxious: for the demon waits and waits, and wants to be satisfied.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Therefore I summon age
    To grant youth’s heritage,
    Life’s struggle having so far reached its term:
    Robert Browning (1812–1889)

    O Spirit,
    spark by spark,
    you instil fire
    through the sight
    to hearts you attack
    you grant rare happiness!
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
