Plumaceous Feathers Inferred

Famous quotes containing the words feathers and/or inferred:

    Were she to lose her love, because she had lost
    Her confidence in mine, or even lose
    Its first simplicity, love, voice and all,
    All my fine feathers would be plucked away
    And I left shivering.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Much can be inferred about a man from his mistress: in her one beholds his weaknesses and his dreams.
