Famous quotes containing the word century:

    Though I knit my brow,
    my gaze is fixed
    longingly
    anyway.
    Though I check my tongue,
    this tortured face of mine
    dissolves in a smile.
    Though I drive my heart to hardness,
    my body bears
    the gooseflesh
    of desire.
    When I see that man,
    how on earth
    can my anger
    survive?
    Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)
