Appeared

Famous quotes containing the word appeared:

    But before the extremity of the Cape had completely sunk, it appeared like a filmy sliver of land lying flat on the ocean, and later still a mere reflection of a sand-bar on the haze above. Its name suggests a homely truth, but it would be more poetic if it described the impression which it makes on the beholder.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    There the angel of the LORD appeared to him in a flame of fire out of a bush; he looked, and the bush was blazing, yet it was not consumed.
    Bible: Hebrew, Exodus 3:2.

    The inhabitants of Canada appeared to be suffering between two fires,—the soldiery and the priesthood.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
