Famous quotes containing the words shy, younger and/or men:
“I will be steel!
I will build a steel bridge over my need!
I will build a bomb shelter over my heart!
But my future is a secret.
It is as shy as a mole.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
“I know not what the younger dreams
Some vague Utopiaand she seems,
When withered old and skeleton-gaunt,
An image of such politics.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“He has outsoared the shadow of our night;
Envy and calumny and hate and pain,
And that unrest which men miscall delight,
Can touch him not and torture not again;
From the contagion of the worlds slow stain
He is secure, and now can never mourn
A heart grown cold, a head grown grey in vain.”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (17921822)
