Famous quotes containing the word pain:

    This is a pain I mostly hide,
    but ties of blood, or seed endure,
    and even now I feel inside
    the hunger for his outstretched hand,
    a man’s embrace to take me in,
    the need for just a word of praise.
    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
