Includes The

Famous quotes containing the words includes the and/or includes:

    The older woman’s love is not love of herself, nor of herself mirrored in a lover’s eyes, nor is it corrupted by need. It is a feeling of tenderness so still and deep and warm that it gilds every grassblade and blesses every fly. It includes the ones who have a claim on it, and a great deal else besides. I wouldn’t have missed it for the world.
    Germaine Greer (b. 1939)

    And it seems to me a blasphemy to say that the Holy Spirit is Love. In the Old Testament it is an Eagle: in the New it is a Dove. Christ insists on the Dove: but in His supreme moments He includes the Eagle.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    And me happiest when I compose poems:
    Love, power, the huzza of battle
    are something, are much:
    yet a poem includes them like a pool
    water and reflection.
    Irving Layton (b. 1912)

    We delight in one knowable thing, which comprehends all that is knowable; in one apprehensible, which draws together all that can be apprehended; in a single being that includes all, above all in the one which is itself the all.
    Giordano Bruno (1548–1600)
