Wick/people

Famous quotes containing the words wick and/or people:

A kind of wick or snuff that will abate it.”

Reflected in the mud and even dust,
‘Twas disillusion upon disillusion.
We were lost piecemeal to the animals,
Like people thrown out to delay the wolves.
Nothing but fallibility was left us....”
