Faces

Famous quotes containing the word faces:

    What mean ye that ye beat my people to pieces, and grind the faces of the poor?
    Bible: Hebrew Isaiah, 3:15.

    Writers aren’t people exactly. Or, if they’re any good, they’re a whole lot of people trying so hard to be one person. It’s like actors, who try so pathetically not to look in mirrors. Who lean backward trying—only to see their faces in the reflecting chandeliers.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    Part of the reason for the ugliness of adults, in a child’s eyes, is that the child is usually looking upwards, and few faces are at their best when seen from below.
    George Orwell (1903–1950)
