Famous quotes containing the word cave:

    The whole cut impressed me as if it were a cave with its stalactites laid open to the light.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    We are not cave dwellers anymore, we live in the age of technology. When someone needs a car, he does not need to build it. He can buy it. When someone needs a murder, he himself does not need to kill. He can order it.
    Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)

    Nothing is uglier than the sinner, nothing so leprous or fetid; the scar of his crimes is still raw, and he stinks like the cave of Hell.
    Aurelius Clemens Prudentius (c. 348–405)
