Wears

Famous quotes containing the word wears:

    An evil moon bleeds drops of death.
    The earth burns brown.
    Grass shrivels and dries to a yellowish mass.
    Earth wears a dun-colored dress
    like an old woman wooing the sun to be her lover,
    be her sweetheart and her husband bound in one.
    Margaret Abigail Walker (b. 1915)

    It is not one man nor a million, but the spirit of liberty that must be preserved. The waves which dash upon the shore are, one by one, broken, but the ocean conquers nevertheless. It overwhelms the Armada, it wears out the rock. In like manner, whatever the struggle of individuals, the great cause will gather strength.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    ... where there is one slave there are always two—he who wears the chain and he who rivets it.
    Jeanne De Hericourt (1809–1875)
