Famous quotes containing the word starts:

Quite unremarked-on, and I feel once more

All I remember weaker, but
Something in me starts toppling.”

“The House of Commons starts its proceedings with a prayer. The chaplain looks at the assembled members with their varied intelligence and then prays for the country.”
