Famous quotes containing the words the one, the, one, that and/or away:
“A noble person confers no such gift as his whole confidence: none so exalts the giver and the receiver; it produces the truest gratitude. Perhaps it is only essential to friendship that some vital trust should have been reposed by the one in the other. I feel addressed and probed even to the remotest parts of my being when one nobly shows, even in trivial things, an implicit faith in me.... A threat or a curse may be forgotten, but this mild trust translates me.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Radical historians now the tell the story of Thanksgiving from the point of view of the turkey.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“‘O glorious Life, Who dwellest in earth and sun,
I have lived, I praise and adore Thee.”
A sword swept.
Over the pass the voices one by one
Faded, and the hill slept.”
—Sir Henry Newbolt (1862–1938)
“The chief imagination of Christendom,
Dante Alighieri, so utterly found himself
That he has made that hollow face of his
More plain to the mind’s eye than any face
But that of Christ.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“Come away, away children;
Come children, come down!
The hoarse wind blows coldly;
Lights shine in the town.”
—Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)
