Hands

Famous quotes containing the word hands:

“Test every work of intellect or faith
And everything that your own hands have wrought,
And call those works extravagance of breath
That are not suited for such men as come
Proud, open-eyed and laughing to the tomb.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“For Satan finds some mischief still
For idle hands to do.”

Behind the hands that wove
The intolerable shirt of flame
Which human power cannot remove.”
