Borrowed Word

Famous quotes containing the words borrowed and/or word:

    Thought can but share
    Belief—and the tormented soul,
    Changing confession to despair,
    Must wear a borrowed robe.
    Austin Clarke (1896–1974)

    The hood-winked husband shows his anger, and the word jealous is flung in his face. Jealous husband equals betrayed husband. And there are women who look upon jealousy as synonymous with impotence, so that the betrayed husband can only shut his eyes, powerless in the face of such accusations.
    J. August Strindberg (1849–1912)
