Remain

Famous quotes containing the word remain:

    For thousands the world is a freak show, the images flicker past and disappear, the impressions remain flat and disconnected in the soul. Thus, they are easily led by the opinions of others, are willing to let their impressions be reordered, rearranged, and reevaluated.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    I don’t know how long it has been since my ear has been free from the roll of a drum. It is the music I sleep by, and I love it.... I shall remain here while anyone remains, and do whatever comes to my hand. I may be compelled to face danger, but never fear it, and while our soldiers can stand and fight, I can stand and feed and nurse them.
    Clara Barton (1821–1912)

    It is a medium of entertainment which permits millions of people to listen to the same joke at the same time, and yet remain lonesome.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
