Warn Act

Famous quotes containing the words warn and/or act:

    ‘Twas Age imposed on poems
    Their gather-roses burden
    To warn against the danger
    That overtakes lovers
    From being overflooded
    With happiness should have it
    And yet not know they have it.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    All conservatives are such from personal defects. They have been effeminated by position or nature, born halt and blind, through luxury of their parents, and can only, like invalids, act on the defensive. But strong natures, backwoodsmen, New Hampshire giants, Napoleons, Burkes, Broughams, Websters, Kossuths, are inevitable patriots, until their life ebbs, and their defects and gout, palsy and money, warp them.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
