Won Adams Semi

Famous quotes containing the words won and/or adams:

    For sleeping, like death,
    Must be won without pride,
    With a nod from nature,
    With a lack of strain,
    And a loss of stature.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    To my fancy, one looks back on life, it has only two responsibilities, which include all the others: one is the bringing of new life into existence; the other, educating it after it is brought in. All betrayals of trust result from these original sins.
    —Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
