Famous quotes containing the words keen and/or sage:
“Here thou art painted in the dress
Of an inhuman murderess;
Examining upon our hearts
Thy fertile shop of cruel arts:
Engines more keen than ever yet
Adorned tyrant’s cabinet,
Of which the most tormenting are
Black eyes, red lips, and curled hair.”
—Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)
“The sage as astronomer.—As long as you still experience the stars as something “above you,” you still lack viewpoint of knowledge.”
