Tied Hands

Famous quotes containing the words tied hands, tied and/or hands:

    Art is the need to create; but in its essence, immense and universal, it is impatient of working with lame or tied hands, and of making cripples and monsters, such as all pictures and statues are. Nothing less than the creation of man and nature is its end.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    We are more tied to our faults than to our virtues.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    I am the enemy you killed, my friend.
    I knew you in this dark; for so you frowned
    Yesterday through me as you jabbed and killed.
    I parried; but my hands were loath and cold.
    Let us sleep now.
    Wilfred Owen (1893–1918)
