Human Violence

Famous quotes containing the words human and/or violence:

    The human spirit will endure sickness; but a broken spirit—who can bear?
    Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 18:14.

    Violence upon the roads: violence of horses;
    Some few have handsome riders, are garlanded
    On delicate sensitive ear or tossing mane,
    But wearied running round and round in their courses
    All break and vanish, and evil gathers head:
    Herodias’ daughters have returned again.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
