Hunger Strikes

Famous quotes containing the words hunger and/or strikes:

    Nor seek, for this is also sooth,
    To hunger fiercely after truth,
    Lest all thy toiling only breeds
    New dreams, new dreams; there is no truth
    Saving in thine own heart.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Pan’s Syrinx was a girl indeed,
    Though now she’s turned into a reed;
    From that dear reed Pan’s pipe does come,
    A pipe that strikes Apollo dumb;
    Nor flute, nor lute, nor gittern can
    So chant it, as the pipe of Pan;
    John Lyly (1553–1606)
