Passionate

Famous quotes containing the word passionate:

    I heard the beat of centaur’s hoofs over the hard turf
    As his dry and passionate talk devoured the afternoon.
    “He is a charming man” “But after all what did he mean?”—
    “His pointed ears. ... He must be unbalanced,”—
    “There was something he said that I might have challenged.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    Our passionate preoccupation with the sky, the stars, and a God somewhere in outer space is a homing impulse. We are drawn back to where we came from.
    Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

    The wine-flushed, bold-eyed boys, and even the girls,
    Devoured her with their eager, passionate gaze;
    But looking at her falsely-smiling face,
    I knew her self was not in that strange place.
    Claude McKay (1889–1948)
