Hand Touches

Famous quotes containing the words hand and/or touches:

    Now, God be thanked Who has matched us with His hour,
    And caught our youth, and wakened us from sleeping,
    With hand made sure, clear eye, and sharpened power,
    To turn, as swimmers into cleanness leaping.
    Rupert Brooke (1887–1915)

    No picture of life can have any veracity that does not admit the odious facts. A man’s power is hooped in by a necessity which, by many experiments, he touches on every side until he learns its arc.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
