Turned

Famous quotes containing the word turned:

    That high All-seer which I dallied with
    Hath turned my feigned prayer on my head,
    And given in earnest what I begged in jest.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    because you lied to God outrightly—
    told him that all things on earth were in order—
    He turned his wrath upon you and said,
    I will make you the most loathsome....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Other centuries had their driving forces. What will ours have been when men look far back to it one day? Maybe it won’t be the American Century, after all. Or the Russian Century or the Atomic Century. Wouldn’t it be wonderful, Phil, if it turned out to be everybody’s century, when people all over the world—free people—found a way to live together? I’d like to be around to see some of that, even the beginning.
    Moss Hart (1904–1961)
