Famous quotes containing the words world and/or grand:
“Good Lord, for alliance! Thus goes every one to the world but I, and I am sunburnt; I may sit in a corner and cry “Heigh-ho for a husband!””
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“They have their belief, these poor Tibet people, that Providence sends down always an Incarnation of Himself into every generation. At bottom some belief in a kind of pope! At bottom still better, a belief that there is a Greatest Man; that he is discoverable; that, once discovered, we ought to treat him with an obedience which knows no bounds. This is the truth of Grand Lamaism; the “discoverability” is the only error here.”
—Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
