Famous quotes containing the word beginning:

    Before the beginning of years
    There came to the making of man
    Time, with a gift of tears;
    Grief, with a glass that ran;
    —A.C. (Algernon Charles)

    It may be possible to do without dancing entirely. Instances have been known of young people passing many, many months successively, without being at any ball of any description, and no material injury accrue either to body or mind; Mbut when a beginning is made—when felicities of rapid motion have once been, though slightly, felt—it must be a very heavy set that does not ask for more.
    Jane Austen (1775–1817)
