Tears/physiology

Famous quotes containing the words tears and/or physiology:

“So. Let me accept the role, and call
Myself the circumstances’ tennis-ball:
We’ll bounce: together
Or not, whether
Either, let no tears silent fall.”

“If church prelates, past or present, had even an inkling of physiology they’d realise that what they term this inner ugliness creates and nourishes the hearing ear, the seeing eye, the active mind, and energetic body of man and woman, in the same way that dirt and dung at the roots give the plant its delicate leaves and the full-blown rose.”
—Sean O’Casey (1884–1964)
