Wounded Men

Famous quotes containing the words wounded and/or men:

    “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!”
    —Thomas Lodge (1558?–1625)

    ““But such as you and I do not seem old
    Like men who live by habit. Every day
    I ride with falcon to the river’s edge
    Or carry the ringed mail upon my back,
    Or court a woman; neither enemy,
    Game-bird, nor woman does the same thing twice....””
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
