Famous quotes containing the words return and/or curve:

    “... in spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart. I simply can’t build up my hopes on a foundation consisting of confusion, misery, and death. I see the world gradually being turned into a wilderness, I hear the ever approaching thunder, which will destroy us too, I can feel the sufferings of millions and yet, if I look up into the heavens, I think that it will all come right, that this cruelty too will end, and that peace and tranquillity will return again.”
    —Anne Frank (1929–1945)

    “And out again I curve and flow
    To join the brimming river,
    For men may come and men may go,
    But I go on forever.”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
