Brooks Men

Famous quotes containing the words brooks and/or men:

“Let it be stairways, and a splintery box
Where you have thrown me, scraped me with your kiss,
Have honed me, have released me after this
Cavern kindness smiled away our shocks.
That is the birthright of our lovely love
In swaddling clothes.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

“Revolutions are brought about by men, by men who think as men of action and act as men of thought.”
