Manning Face

Famous quotes containing the words manning and/or face:

    The charming landscape which I saw this morning is indubitably made up of some twenty or thirty farms. Miller owns this field, Locke that, and Manning the woodland beyond. But none of them owns the landscape. There is property in the horizon which no man has but he whose eye can integrate all parts, that is, the poet. This is the best part of these men’s farms, yet to this their warranty-deeds give no title.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Child,
    why do you waste your time
    on childish things alone?”
    “Clothe yourself in anger.”
    “Take courage,
    and cast off this honesty
    toward your lover.”
    When her girlfriends
    gave her such advice,
    she answered,
    her face frightened,
    “Speak softly.
    The lord of my breath
    is still in my heart.
    No doubt he’ll hear you.”
    Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)
