Famous quotes containing the word sadly:
“... nothing seems completely to differentiate the poor but poverty. We find no adjectives to fit them, as a whole, only those of which Want is the mother. “Miserable” covers many; “shabby” most, and I am sadly aware that, in a large majority of minds, “disagreeable” includes them all.”
—Albion Fellows Bacon (1865–1933)
“We cannot but pity the boy who has never fired a gun; he is no more humane, while his education has been sadly neglected.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
