Famous quotes containing the words wounded and/or children:
“Nature herself her shape admires;
The gods are wounded in her sight;
And Love forsakes his heavenly fires
And at her eyes his brand doth light:
Heigh ho, would she were mine!”

“They walked the roads
Mimicking what they heard, as children mimic;
They understood that wisdom comes of beggary.”
