Body Lead

Famous quotes containing the words body and/or lead:

“It is remarkable that the dead lie everywhere under stones.... Why should the monument be so much more enduring than the fame which it is designed to perpetuate,—a stone to a bone? “Here lies,”M”Here lies”;Mwhy do they not sometimes write, There rises? Is it a monument to the body only that is intended?”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“I didn’t lead a very wise life, myself, but it was a full one and a grown-up one. You come of age very quickly through shipwreck and disaster.”
—Philip Dunne (1908–1992)
