Left

Famous quotes containing the word left:

    I used to join the murmurings about “Where are the qualified women?” As we murmured, we would all gaze about the room, up toward the chandelier, into the corner behind the potted palm, under the napkin, hoping perhaps that qualified women would pop out like leprechauns.
    Jane O’Reilly, U.S. feminist and humorist. The Girl I Left Behind, ch. 5 (1980)

    Although the left hand may conquer the right, no advantage is gained.
    Chinese proverb.

    Only Herrick’s left alone,
    For to number sorrow by
    Their departures hence and die.
    Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
