Human Shields

Famous quotes containing the words human and/or shields:

    There might be a class of beings, human once, but now to humanity invisible, for whose scrutiny, and for whose refined appreciation of the beautiful, more especially than for our own, had been set in order by God the great landscape-garden of the whole earth.

    Your cloak hides the sinner,
    your cloak shields the lover,
    colour of wine,
    cyclamen,
    red rhododendron.
