Famous quotes containing the word gave:

    Rumble thy bellyful! Spit, fire! Spout, rain!
    Nor rain, wind, thunder, fire are my daughters.
    I tax you not, you elements, with unkindness;
    I never gave you kingdom, called you children.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    He fancied that I gave a soul
    Did but our bodies touch,
    And laughed upon his breast to think
    Beast gave beast as much.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    And though your daisies are an unwanted death,
    I wade through the smell of their cancer
    and recognize the prognosis,
    its cartful of loss . . .
    I say now,
    you gave what you could.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
