Famous quotes containing the words iron and/or eyes:

    Morality, a muzzle for the will; logic, a climbing iron for the mind.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    “It looks as if
    Some pallid thing had squashed its features flat
    And its eyes shut with overeagerness
    To see what people found so interesting
    In one another, and had gone to sleep
    Of its own stupid lack of understanding,
    Or broken its white neck of mushroom stuff
    Short off, and died against the windowpane.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
