Famous quotes containing the words human and/or face:

    “What a wonderful phenomenon it is, carefully considered, when the human eye, that jewel of organic structures, concentrates its moist brilliance on another human creature!”
    —Thomas Mann (1875–1955)

    “Come, gentle night, come, loving, black-browed night.
    Give me my Romeo, and when I shall die,
    Take him and cut him out in little stars
    And he will make the face of heaven so fine
    That all the world will be in love with night,
    And pay no worship to the garish sun.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
