Famous quotes containing the words foreign and/or noble:
“the young men who watch us from the curbs:
They hold the glaze of wonder in their stare
Our crooked backs, hands fetid as old herbs,
The tallow eyes, wax face, the foreign hair!”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
“My one and noble heart has witnesses
In all love’s countries, that will watch awake;
And when blind sleep falls on the spying senses,
The heart is sensual, though five eyes break.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
