Prized Quotes
Forgotten tones of love recur to us, and kind glances shine out of the past – oh so bright and clear! – oh so longed after! – because they are out of reach; as holiday music from within a prison wall – or sunshine seen through the bars; more prized because unattainable – more bright because of the contrast of present darkness and solitude, whence there is no escape.
William Makepeace Thackeray
For if all things were equally in all men, nothing would be prized.
Thomas Hobbes
Nothing's really a prized possession except my family, you know?
James Hetfield
Metallica
Careful, young woman. Smart-mouthed females are prized here.
Beverly Jenkins
Oh! why was I born with a different face? why was I not born like the rest of my race? when I look,each one starts! when I speak, I offend; then Im silent & passive & lose every friend. Then my verse I dishonour, my pictures despise, my person degrade & my temper chastise; and the pen is my terror, the pencil my shame; all my talents I bury, and dead is my fame. Im either too low or too highly prized; when elate I m envy'd, when meek Im despis'd.
William Blake
Too dear I prized a fair enchanting face: beauty unchaste is beauty in disgrace.
Homer
