Famous quotes containing the word beginning:
“Man was Cadavers masker, the harnessing mantle,
Windily master of man was the rotten fathom,
My ghost in his metal neptune
Forged in mans mineral.
This was the god of beginning in the intricate seawhirl,
And my images roared and rose on heavens hill.”

Is but a beginning to be something else
Than what we were before; and when we cease
To be that something, then we call it death.”
