Hopeless Savage

Famous quotes containing the words hopeless and/or savage:

    The old—like children—talk to themselves, for they have reached that hopeless wisdom of experience which knows that though one were to cry it in the streets to multitudes, or whisper it in the kiss to one’s beloved, the only ears that can ever hear one’s secrets are one’s own!
    Eugene O’Neill (1888–1953)

    Oh yes, there is a vast difference between the savage and the civilized man, but it is never apparent to their wives until after breakfast.
    Helen Rowland (1875–1950)
