Famous quotes containing the words firs, men and/or world:

    the broad cloud-driving moon in the clear sky
    Lifts o’er the firs her shining shield,
    And in her tranquil light
    Sleep falls on forest and field.
    See! sleep hath fallen: the trees are asleep:
    The night is come. The land is wrapt in sleep.
    Robert Bridges (1844–1930)

    Some men are so full of themselves that when they fall in love, they amuse themselves rather with their own passion than with the person they love.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    Think of the better world we could build if men and women, if even for a little while longer, were freed from their greatest fear: the fear of death and the grave.
    Robert D. Andrews, and Nick Grindé. Dr. Ralph Howard (Edward Van Sloan)
