Divided

Famous quotes containing the word divided:

    O born in days when wits were fresh and clear,
    And life ran gaily as the sparkling Thames;
    Before this strange disease of modern life,
    With its sick hurry, its divided aims,
    Its head o’ertaxed, its palsied hearts, was rife—
    Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)

    From time immemorial the men of the town have been famous seamen, and have divided their energies between fishing and hating the English.
