Secrets

Famous quotes containing the word secrets:

    “The intellect is a cleaver; it discerns and rifts its way into the secrets of things.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “When her husband clutches at her dress,
    she lowers her face,
    her modesty aroused.
    When he wants a wild embrace,
    she shyly secrets away
    her limbs.
    She can’t say a word
    and bestows her gaze
    on her beaming friends.
    A new wife suffers
    with shame
    the first time she makes love.”
    —Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)
