Famous quotes containing the word sadly:
“We cannot but pity the boy who has never fired a gun; he is no more humane, while his education has been sadly neglected.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“... nothing seems completely to differentiate the poor but poverty. We find no adjectives to fit them, as a whole, only those of which Want is the mother. “Miserable” covers many; “shabby” most, and I am sadly aware that, in a large majority of minds, “disagreeable” includes them all.”
—Albion Fellows Bacon (1865–1933)
