Famous quotes containing the words final and/or statement:

    The final event to himself has been, that as he rose like a rocket, he fell like the stick.
    Thomas Paine (1737–1809)

    Truth is used to vitalize a statement rather than devitalize it. Truth implies more than a simple statement of fact. “I don’t have any whisky,” may be a fact but it is not a truth.
    William Burroughs (b. 1914)
