Wounded Men

Famous quotes containing the words wounded and/or men:

    A needless Alexandrine ends the song,
    That, like a wounded snake, drags its slow length along.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    America is neither free nor brave, but a land of tight, iron- clanking little wills, everybody trying to put it over everybody else, and a land of men absolutely devoid of the real courage of trust, trust in life’s sacred spontaneity. They can’t trust life until they can control it.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
