Famous quotes containing the words strange and/or woman:
“Grumble and swear and curse,
brother, god and the boat,
and the great waves,
but could you guess
what strange terror lurks in the sea-depth,
you’d thank the gods for the ship.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
“Man that is born of woman hath but a short time to live, and is full of misery. He cometh up, and is cut down, like a flower; he fleeth as it were a shadow, and never continueth in one stay.”
—“Burial of the Dead,” first anthem, Book of Common Prayer (1662)
