Widely

Famous quotes containing the word widely:

    To have no son, no wife,
    No house or land still seemed quite natural.
    Only a numbness registered the shock
    Of finding out how much had gone of life,
    How widely from the others.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Everyone realizes that one can believe little of what people say about each other. But it is not so widely realized that even less can one trust what people say about themselves.
    Rebecca West (1892–1983)

    It is widely held that too much wine will dull a man’s desire. Indeed it will—in a dull man.
    John Osborne (1929–1994)
