Famous quotes containing the words man, fell and/or earth:

    No man can quite emancipate himself from his age and country, or produce a model in which the education, the religion, the politics, usages, and arts, of his times shall have no share.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Did you say all? O hell-kite! All?
    What, all my pretty chickens and their dam
    At one fell swoop?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The heavy sensual shoulders, the thighs, the blood-born flesh
    and earth turning into color, rocks into their crystals,
    water to sound, fire to form: life flickers
    uncounted into the supple arms of love.
    Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)
