Suffering in human life is very widely vicarious. [ Ward Beecher ]

Both my language and my sentiments differ widely from theirs. [ Horace ]

What is failure except feebleness?
And what is it to miss one's mark except to aim widely and weakly? [ Ouida ]

The faculties of our souls differ as widely as the features of our faces and the forms of our frames. [ J. G. Holland ]

Poetry is simply the most beautiful, impressive and widely effective mode of saying things, and hence its importance. [ Matthew Arnold ]

Nothing is so swift as calumny; nothing is more easily uttered; nothing more readily received; nothing more widely dispersed. [ Cicero ]

It has become a settled principle that nothing which is good and true can be destroyed by persecution, but that the effect ultimately is to establish more firmly, and to spread more widely, that which it was designed to overthrow. It has long since passed into a proverb that the blood of the martyrs is the seed of the church. [ Albert Barnes ]
