Sting/people

Famous quotes containing the words sting and/or people:

    I perceive I have not really understood any thing, not a single
    object, and that no man ever can,
    Nature here in sight of the sea taking advantage of me to dart upon me and sting me,
    Because I have dared to open my mouth to sing at all.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    The gift of loneliness is sometimes a radical vision of society or one’s people that has not previously been taken into account.
