Famous quotes containing the word left:
“Thou hast left behind
Powers that will work for thee; air, earth, and skies;
Theres not a breathing of the common wind
That will forget thee; thou hast great allies;
Thy friends are exultations, agonies,
And love, and mans unconquerable mind.”
—William Wordsworth (17701850)
“He was last seen flying to New York.
He was handing out cards which read:
He wears a question in his left eye.
He dislikes the police but will associate with them.
He will demand something not on the menu.
He is invisible to the eyes of beauty and culture....”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“Let no man write my epitaph; for as no man who knows my motives dare now vindicate them, let not prejudice or ignorance asperse them. Let them rest in obscurity and peace! Let my memory be left in oblivion, my tomb remain uninscribed, until other times and other men can do justice to my character.”
—Robert Emmet (17781803)
