Head Wounds Sustained

Famous quotes containing the words head, wounds and/or sustained:

    A lioness, with udders all drawn dry,
    Lay couching, head on ground, with cat-like watch
    When that the sleeping man should stir; for ‘tis
    The royal disposition of that beast
    To prey on nothing that doth seem as dead.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    And we, with all our wounds and all our powers,
    Must each await alone at his own height
    Another darkness or another light;
    Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

    The usual derivation of the word Metaphysics is not to be sustained ... the science is supposed to take its name from its superiority to physics. The truth is, that Aristotle’s treatise on Morals is next in succession to his Book of Physics.
    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
