Born

Famous quotes containing the word born:

“For it does not follow because many books are written by persons born in America that there exists an American literature. Books which imitate or represent the thoughts and life of Europe do not constitute an American literature. Before such can exist, an original idea must animate this nation and fresh currents of life must call into life fresh thoughts along its shores.”
—Margaret Fuller (1810–1850)

“There would be no sunshine in society if the born flatterers, I mean the so-called amiable people, did not bring it in with them.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“Being born is like being kidnapped. And then sold into slavery.”
—Andy Warhol (1928–1987)
