Famous quotes containing the words tale and/or body:
“Once more La Traviata sighs
Another sadder song:
Once more Il Trovatore cries
A tale of deeper wrong;”
—Alfred Noyes (1880–1958)
“The human body is not a thing or substance, given, but a continuous creation. The human body is an energy system ... which is never a complete structure; never static; is in perpetual inner self-construction and self-destruction; we destroy in order to make it new.”
—Norman O. Brown (b. 1913)
