Men Strike

Famous quotes containing the words men and/or strike:

“How cheap must be the material of which so many men are made!”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Is this then a touch? quivering me to a new identity,
Flames and ether making a rush for my veins,
Treacherous tip of me reaching and crowding to help them,
My flesh and blood playing out lightning to strike what is hardly
different from myself,
On all sides prurient provokers stiffening my limbs,”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
