Famous quotes containing the word gave:

    —E’en then would be some stooping; and I choose
    Never to stoop. Oh sir, she smiled, no doubt,
    Whene’er I passed her; but who passed without
    Much the same smile? This grew; I gave commands;
    Then all smiles stopped together. There she stands
    As if alive.
    Robert Browning (1812–1889)

    My doctor gave me six months to live but when I couldn’t pay the bill, he gave me six months more.
    Walter Matthau (b. 1920)

    From her I got but gave no wealthiness:
    Fleeced I the giver, yet am penniless.
