Famous quotes containing the word strength:

    “Give him the darkest inch your shelf allows,
    Hide him in lonely garrets, if you will,—
    But his hard, human pulse is throbbing still
    With the sure strength that fearless truth endows.”
    —Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

    “If thought is life
    And strength & breath,
    And the want
    Of thought is death;

    Then am I
    A happy fly,
    If I live,
    Or if I die.”
    —William Blake (1757–1827)

    “Who among us has the strength to oppose petty egoism, those petty good feelings—pity and remorse?”
    —Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818–1883)
