Brown Eyed

Famous quotes containing the words brown and/or eyed:

“It is a life-and-death conflict between all those grand, universal, man-respecting principles which we call by the comprehensive term democracy, and all those partial, person-respecting, class-favoring elements which we group together under that silver-slippered word aristocracy. If this war does not mean that, it means nothing.”
—Antoinette Brown Blackwell (1825–1921)

“This morning, there flew up the lane
A timid lady-bird to our bird-bath
And eyed her image dolefully as death;”
—John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)
