Famous quotes containing the words human and/or tongue:
“Certainly the effort to remain unchanged, young, when the body gives so impressive a signal of change as the menopause, is gallant; but it is a stupid, self-sacrificial gallantry, better befitting a boy of twenty than a woman of forty-five or fifty. Let the athletes die young and laurel-crowned. Let the soldiers earn the Purple Hearts. Let women die old, white-crowned, with human hearts.”
—Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)
“He hath a heart as sound as a bell and his tongue is the clapper, for what his heart thinks, his tongue speaks.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
