Raised

Famous quotes containing the word raised:

    But dread
    was in her, a bloodbeat, it was against the rolling dark
    oncoming river she raised bulwarks....
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    So it is with the resurrection of the dead. What is sown is perishable, what is raised is imperishable. It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power. It is sown a physical body, it is raised a spiritual body.
    Bible: New Testament, 1 Corinthians 15:42-45.

    Look at the mother of Washington! She raised a boy that could not tell a lie—could not tell a lie! But he never had any chance. It might have been different if he had belonged to the Washington Newspaper Correspondents’ Club
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
