Wounded Men

Famous quotes containing the words wounded and/or men:

    But the dark changed to red, and torches shone,
    And deafening music shook the leaves; a troop
    Shouldered a litter with a wounded man,
    Or smote upon the string and to the sound
    Sang of the beast that gave the fatal wound.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    In the long run men hit only what they aim at. Therefore, though they should fail immediately, they had better aim at something high.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
