Scars
A scar nobly got is a good livery of honor.
Shakespeare.
The scars of the body—what are they, compared to the hidden ones of the heart?
Madame de Maintenon.
Who has not raised a tombstone, here and there, over buried hopes and dead joys, on the road of life? Like the scars of the heart, they are not to be obliterated.
Ninon de Lenclos.
