Famous quotes containing the word rise:
“Nothing is so insufferable to man as to be completely at rest, without passions, without business, without diversion, without study. He then feels his nothingness, his forlornness, his insufficiency, his dependence, his weakness, his emptiness. There will immediately rise from the depth of his heart weariness, gloom, sadness, fretfulness, vexation, despair.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
“Nor could I rise with you,
Because your face
Would put out Jesus’,”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
“To rise from error to truth is rare and beautiful.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
