Wooden Statues

Famous quotes containing the words wooden and/or statues:

“It’s the anarchy of poverty
delights me, the old
yellow wooden house indented
among the new brick tenements”

“And are not men than they more blind,
Who having eyes yet never find
The bliss in which they move:
Like statues dead
They up and down are carried,
Yet neither see nor love.”
