“Things bad begun make strong themselves by ill”
William Shakespeare
“You see how this House of Commons has begun to verify all the ill prophecies that were made of it -- low, vulgar, meddling with everything, assuming universal competency, and flattering every base passion -- and sneering at everything noble refined and truly national. The direct tyranny will come on by and by, after it shall have gratified the multitude with the spoil and ruin of the old institutions of the land.”
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
“We've begun to long for the pitter-patter of little feet - so we bought a dog. Well, it's cheaper, and you get more feet.”
Rita Rudner
“Our work has only begun. In our time we have an historic opportunity to shape a global balance of power that favors freedom and that will therefore deepen and extend the peace. And I use the word power broadly, because even more important than military and indeed economic power is the power of ideas, the power of compassion, and the power of hope.”
Condoleezza Rice
“Can anything be sadder than work left unfinished? Yes, work never begun”
Christina G. Rossetti
“I have not yet begun to fight!”
John Paul Jones
“Not victory , Obi- Wan. The shroud of the Dark Side has fallen. Begun, this Clone War has.”
