undone Quotes

John Donne, Anne Donne,Un-done.

—Donne,John

It was not the matter of the work, but the mind that went into, that countedöand the manwho was not content to do small things well would leave great things undone.

—Glasgow, Ellen Anderson Gholson

Then said I,Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for mine eyes have seen the King, the L of hosts. Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar: And he laid it upon my 102 mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged. Also I heard thevoiceoftheLord,saying,Whomshall Isend, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.

—Bible (Old Testament)
