Faces

Famous quotes containing the word faces:

    While the music is performed, the cameras linger savagely over the faces of the audience. What a bottomless chasm of vacuity they reveal! Those who flock round the Beatles, who scream themselves into hysteria, whose vacant faces flicker over the TV screen, are the least fortunate of their generation, the dull, the idle, the failures . . .
    Paul Johnson (b. 1928)

    To muse and brood and live again in memory,
    With those old faces of our infancy
    Heaped over with a mound of grass,
    Two handfuls of white dust, shut in an urn of brass!
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him.... Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows.
    Bible: Hebrew Isaiah 53:3-4.
