A drawing is always dragged down to the level of its caption.
James Thurber
A handful of men, inured to war, proceed to certain victory, while on the contrary, numerous armies of raw and undisciplined troops are but multitudes of men dragged to the slaughter.
Publius Flavius Vegetius Renatus
Boxing is changing and training methods are slowly being dragged into the 21st century.
Barry McGuigan
Having a baby dragged me, kicking and screaming, from the world of self-absorption.
Paul Reiser
I stand ready to lead us down a different path, where we are lifted up by our desire to succeed, not dragged down by a resentment of success.
Mitt Romney
I used to be married to a woman who pursued every spiritual trend with tremendous passion and dragged me along. I don't believe in anything. I'd seen mediums and readers.
Harold Ramis
I want to walk through life instead of being dragged through it.
Alanis Morissette

Vince Cable
My parents are both very funny but they're also relatively soft-spoken, normal human beings while I'm just a lunatic. I don't know where this loud, ballsy, hammy ridiculousness came from. I'm just glad I followed my goals and my parents did too. It's not like we even had a plan when I dragged my mom to Los Angeles.
Emma Stone

The natural movement of one's soul is upwards. But just as any object is dragged down when a heavy weight is tied to it, the burden of the body drags down the soul.
Vinoba Bhave
The other inmates stand in a long straight line, flanked by guards, and I am dragged past them. I do not respect them, because they will not run - will not try to escape.
Jack Henry Abbott
We got dragged through a system and got burned by crooked lawyers, and the list goes on and on.
