Famous quotes containing the word set:

    We Russians have assigned ourselves no other task in life but the cultivation of our own personalities, and when we’re barely past childhood, we set to work to cultivate them, those unfortunate personalities.

    Enslave yourself to the right leader’s truth,
    Christ’s or Karl Marx’, and it will set you free.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    What shall we say who have knowledge
    Carried to the heart? Shall we take the act
    To the grave? Shall we, more hopeful, set up the grave
    In the house? The ravenous grave?
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
