Left Face

Famous quotes containing the words left and/or face:

“If you’re going to burn, burn.
If you’re going to boil, boil
and if you’re breaking, O Heart,
go ahead and break,
for I’ve just left him,
that no-good man.”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

“Night is a dead monotonous period under a roof; but in the open world it passes lightly, with its stars and dews and perfumes, and the hours are marked by changes in the face of Nature. What seems a kind of temporal death to people choked between walls and curtains, is only a light and living slumber to the man who sleeps afield.”
—Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
