Born

Famous quotes containing the word born:

“Most commonly revolt is born of material circumstances; but insurrection is always a moral phenomenon. Revolt is Masaniello, who led the Neapolitan insurgents in 1647; but insurrection is Spartacus. Insurrection is a thing of the spirit, revolt is a thing of the stomach.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)

“The most dangerous physicians are those born actors who imitate born physicians with a perfectly deceptive guile.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“His awful skin
stretched out by some tradesman
is like my skin, here between my fingers,
a kind of webbing, a kind of frog.
Surely when first born my face was this tiny
and before I was born surely I could fly.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
