Lift

Famous quotes containing the word lift:

“I pray every single second of my life; not on my knees, but with my work. My prayer is to lift woman to equality with man. Work and worship are one with me. I can not imagine a God of the universe made happy by my getting down on my knees and calling him “great.””

“Oh! lift me as a wave, a leaf, a cloud!
I fall upon the thorns of life! I bleed!”

“No, in country money, the country scale of gain,
The requisite lift of spirit has never been found....”
