Man Charged

Famous quotes containing the words man and/or charged:

    What man who carries a heavenly soul in him, has not groaned to perceive, that unless he committed a sort of suicide as to the practical things of this world, he never can hope to regulate his earthly conduct by that same heavenly soul?
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    Luna presence,
    foredoomed, already dying,
    it charged the room
    with plangency

    older than human
    cries,
    Robert Earl Hayden (1913–1980)
