Man Gave

Famous quotes containing the words man and/or gave:

“To possess your soul in patience, with all the skin and some of the flesh burnt off your face and hands, is a job for a boy compared with the pains of a man who has lived pretty long in the exhilarating world that drugs or strong waters seem to create and is trying to live now in the first bald desolation created by knocking them off.”
—C.E. (Charles Edward)

“I gave up my shame,
lost my virginity
and became notorious
for his sake.
Dear Friend,
this same man
has now become
a complete stranger.”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
