Native Women

Famous quotes containing the words native and/or women:

    A native health and innocence
    Within my bones did grow,
    And while my God did all his glories show,
    I felt a vigour in my sense
    That was all spirit: I within did flow
    With seas of life like wine;
    I nothing in the world did know
    But ‘twas divine.
    Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)

    “... To many women I have said “lie still”
    And given everything that a woman needs
    A roof, good clothes, passion, love perhaps
    But never asked for love, should I ask that
    I shall be old indeed.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
