Famous quotes containing the words owen and/or wrote:
“Move him into the sun—
Gently its touch awoke him once,
At home, whispering of fields half-sown.”
—Wilfred Owen (1893–1918)
“Although Samuel had a depraved imagination—perhaps even because of this—love, for him, was less a matter of the senses than of the intellect. It was, above all, admiration and appetite for beauty; he considered reproduction a flaw of love, and pregnancy a form of insanity. He wrote on one occasion: “Angels are hermaphrodite and sterile.””
—Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
