Hands

Famous quotes containing the word hands:

    These six things doth the Lord hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, an heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, a false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.
    Bible: Hebrew Proverbs 6:16-19.

    The bitterest creature under heaven is the wife who discovers that her husband’s bravery is only bravado, that his strength is only a uniform, that his power is but a gun in the hands of a fool.
    Pearl S. Buck (1892–1973)

    “... But here there is nor law nor rule,
    Nor have hands held a weary tool;
    And here there is nor Change nor Death,
    But only kind and merry breath,
    For joy is God and God is joy.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
