Famous quotes containing the word knew:

“Life is crazy. Now, maybe you knew this all along. But before I had children, I actually held on to the illusion that there was some sense of order to the universe....

—Susan Lapinski (20th century)

“She knew that the horse, born to serve nobly, had waited in vain for someone noble to serve. His spirit knew that nobility had gone out of men.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)

“This last pain for the damned the Fathers found:
“They knew the bliss with which they were not crowned.””
