Famous quotes containing the words lewis, lord and/or russell:

    The first month of his absence
    I was numb and sick
    And where he’d left his promise
    Life did not turn or kick.
    The seed, the seed of love was sick.
    —Alun Lewis (1915–1944)

    It gets to seem as if way back in the Garden of Eden after the Fall, Adam and Eve had begged the Lord to forgive them and He, in his boundless exasperation, had said, “All right, then. Stay. Stay in the Garden. Get civilized. Procreate. Muck it up.” And they did.
    Diane Arbus (1923–1971)

    Our children shall behold his fame,
    The kindly-earnest, brave, forseeing man,
    Sagacious, patient, dreading praise, not blame,
    New birth of our new soil, the first American.
    —James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)
