Eye Muscle Weakness

Famous quotes containing the words eye and/or weakness:

    Sunday at noon through hyaline thin air
    Sees down the street,
    And in the camera of my eye depicts
    Row-houses and row-lives:
    Glass after glass, door after door the same,
    Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)

    Once women begin to question the inevitability of their subordination and to reject the conventions formerly associated with it, they can no longer retreat to the safety of those conventions. The woman who rejects the stereotype of feminine weakness and dependence can no longer find much comfort in the cliché that all men are beasts. She has no choice except to believe, on the contrary, that men are human beings, and she finds it hard to forgive them when they act like animals.
    Christopher Lasch (b. 1932)
