Kin Strife

Famous quotes containing the words kin and/or strife:

    For little boys are rancorous
    When robbed of any myth,
    And spiteful and cantankerous
    To all their kin and kith.
    But little girls can draw conclusions
    And profit from their lost illusions.
    Phyllis McGinley (1905–1978)

    The day in his hotness,
    The strife with the palm;
    The night in her silence,
    The stars in their calm . . .
    Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)
