Famous quotes containing the word birth:
“That was the birth of sin. Not doing it, but KNOWING about it. Before the apple, [Adam and Eve] had shut their eyes and their minds had gone dark. Now, they peeped and pried and imagined. They watched themselves.”

And for all its worth
Charges into earth
In birth after birth
Ever fresh and fresh.”
