Famous quotes containing the words buried alive, buried and/or alive:
“All I desire for my own burial, is not to be buried alive; but how or where, I think, must be entirely indifferent to every rational creature.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
“In our man-of-war world, Life comes in at one gangway and Death goes overboard at the other. Under the man-of-war scourge, curses mix with tears; and the sigh and the sob furnish the bass to the shrill octave of those who laugh to drown buried griefs of their own.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“The perception of the comic is a tie of sympathy with other men, a pledge of sanity, and a protection from those perverse tendencies and gloomy insanities in which fine intellects sometimes lose themselves. A rogue alive to the ludicrous is still convertible. If that sense is lost, his fellow-men can do little for him.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
