Famous quotes containing the words streets and/or run:

    The old—like children—talk to themselves, for they have reached that hopeless wisdom of experience which knows that though one were to cry it in the streets to multitudes, or whisper it in the kiss to one’s beloved, the only ears that can ever hear one’s secrets are one’s own!
    Eugene O’Neill (1888–1953)

    true pleasure
    Lives in measure,
    Which if men forsake,
    Blinded they into folly run and grief for pleasure take.
    —Unknown. Love Winged My Hopes and Taught Me How to Fly (l. 3–6)
