Brown Eyes

Famous quotes containing the words brown and/or eyes:

    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)

    The light which puts out our eyes is darkness to us. Only that day dawns to which we are awake. There is more day to dawn. The sun is but a morning star.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
