Younger Sons

Famous quotes containing the words younger and/or sons:

    I know not what the younger dreams—
    Some vague Utopia—and she seems,
    When withered old and skeleton-gaunt,
    An image of such politics.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    and of my distrusting self
    white-doctor-who-breathed-for-him-all-night
    say it for two sons gone,
    say nightmare, say it loud
    panebreaking heartmadness:
    nightmare begins responsibility.
    Michael S. Harper (b. 1938)
