Famous quotes containing the word release:

    “The near touch of death may be a release into life; if only it will break the egoistic will, and release that other flow.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “An inquiry about the attitude towards the release of so-called political prisoners. I should be very sorry to see the United States holding anyone in confinement on account of any opinion that that person might hold. It is a fundamental tenet of our institutions that people have a right to believe what they want to believe and hold such opinions as they want to hold without having to answer to anyone for their private opinion.”
    —Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)

    “Come, thou long-expected Jesus,
    born to set thy people free;
    from our fears and sins release us,
    let us find our rest in thee.”
    —Charles Wesley (1707–1788)
