Famous quotes containing the words male and/or sterile:
“The male has been persuaded to assume a certain onerous and disagreeable rôle with the promise of rewards—material and psychological. Women may in the first place even have put it into his head. BE A MAN! may have been, metaphorically, what Eve uttered at the critical moment in the Garden of Eden.”
—Wyndham Lewis (1882–1957)
“It is the human season on this sterile air
Do words outcarry breath the sound goes on and on.
I hear a dead man’s cry from autumn long since gone.
I cry to you beyond upon his bitter air.”
—Archibald MacLeish (1892–1982)
