Met

Famous quotes containing the word met:

“I think sometimes that it is almost a pity to enjoy Italy as much as I do, because the acuteness of my sensations makes them rather exhausting; but when I see the stupid Italians I have met here, completely insensitive to their surroundings, and ignorant of the treasures of art and history among which they have grown up, I begin to think it is better to be an American, and bring to it all a mind and eye unblunted by custom.”
—Edith Wharton (1862–1937)

“When first we met we did not guess
That Love would prove so hard a master.”
—Robert Bridges (1844–1930)

“But never met this Fellow
Attended, or alone
Without a tighter breathing
And Zero at the Bone—”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
