Famous quotes containing the word warmed:
“But a mother is like a broomstick or like the sun in the heavens, it does not matter which as far as ones knowledge of her is concerned: the broomstick is there and the sun is there; and whether the child is beaten by it or warmed and enlightened by it, it accepts it as a fact in nature, and does not conceive it as having had youth, passions, and weaknesses, or as still growing, yearning, suffering, and learning.”
—George Bernard Shaw (18561950)
“...I, his wife, rested and was warmed in the sunlight of his loyal love, and glorious fame, and now, even though his beautiful life has gone out, it is as when some far off planet disappears from the heavens, the light of his great fame still falls upon and warms me.”
—Julia Dent Grant (18251902)
“Take heed, fair Eve! you do not make
Another tempter of this snake;
A marble one so warmed would speak.”
—Edmund Waller (16061687)
