Famous quotes containing the words the world and/or world:

    And I threw a little earth
    on the pink coffin
    covered by the fake plastic grass
    and said O.K., God,
    if it’s the end of the world,
    it must be necessary.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Our Lord Jesus Christ, my brethren, is our hero, a hero all the world wants.
    Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)
