Famous quotes containing the words world and/or grand:

    “And though the shady gloom
    Had given day her room,
    The sun himself withheld his wonted speed,
    And hid his head for shame,
    As his inferior flame
    The new-enlightened world no more should need;
    He saw a greater Sun appear
    Than his bright throne or burning axle-tree could bear.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “As in an icicle the agnostic abides alone. The vital principle is taken out of all endeavor for improving himself or bettering his fellows. All hope in the grand possibilities of life are blasted.”
    —Anna Julia Cooper (1859–1964)
