Famous quotes containing the word remains:

    He shall be washed as white as snow,
    By all the martyr’d virgins kist,
    While the True Church remains below
    Wrapt in the old miasmal mist.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    It is not enough that France should be regarded as a country which enjoys the remains of a freedom acquired long ago. If she is still to count in the world—and if she does not intend to, she may as well perish—she must be seen by her own citizens and by all men as an ever-flowing source of liberty. There must not be a single genuine lover of freedom in the whole world who can have a valid reason for hating France.
    Simone Weil (1909–1943)

    Man, so long as he remains free, has no more constant and agonizing anxiety than find as quickly as possible someone to worship.
    Feodor Dostoyevsky (1821–1881)
