Human Shields

Famous quotes containing the words human and/or shields:

    Writing fiction has developed in me an abiding respect for the unknown in a human lifetime and a sense of where to look for the threads, how to follow, how to connect, find in the thick of the tangle what clear line persists. The strands are all there: to the memory nothing is ever really lost.
    Eudora Welty (b. 1909)

    Your cloak hides the sinner,
    your cloak shields the lover,
    colour of wine,
    cyclamen,
    red rhododendron.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
