Born in the garret, in the kitchen bred.

A Sketch, reported in Bartlett's Familiar Quotations, 10th ed. (1919)Lord Byron
I was a countryman and a father before I was a writer on political subjects.... Born and bred up in the sweet air myself, I was resolved that [my children] should be bred up in it too.
William Cobbett
Born in a cellar, and living in a garret.
Samuel Foote
The sense of meaning is not born in ease and sloth. It comes after bitter trials, disappointments in the glitters, foundering, strandings. It is the marrow from the bone. There is no manna in our wilderness.
Thought is not bred apart from experience or from inner surroundings. Thinking is living, and no thought is bred in an isolated cell in the brain. No thought is an island.Abraham Joshua Heschel
It is hard for any one to be an honest politician who is not born and bred a Dissenter.
William Hazlitt
Thousands of alienated young Muslims, most of them born and bred here but who regard themselves as an army within, are waiting for an opportunity to help to destroy the society that sustains them.
