Flayed Skin

Famous quotes containing the words flayed and/or skin:

    you have flayed us
    with your blossoms,
    spare us the beauty
    of fruit-trees.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    Surely the day will come when color means nothing more than skin tone, when religion is seen uniquely as a way to speak one’s soul; when birth places have the weight of a throw of the dice and all men are born free, when understanding breeds love and brotherhood.
    Josephine Baker (1906–1975)
