High Forehead

Famous quotes containing the words high and/or forehead:

    The chief want, in every State that I have been into, was a high and earnest purpose in its inhabitants. This alone draws out “the great resources” of Nature, and at last taxes her beyond her resources; for man naturally dies out of her.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The forehead and the little ears
    Have gone where Saturn keeps the years;
    The breast where roses could not live
    Has done with rising and with falling.
    Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)
