Cease

Famous quotes containing the word cease:

    Nobody is saying that these people do not ultimately cease to be. And
    Sometimes their passings are even more painful than ours.
    It is just that so often they live till their hair is white.
    They make excellent corpses, among the expensive flowers. . . .
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    To fall into a habit is to begin to cease to be.
    Miguel de Unamuno (1864–1936)

    ... this dream that men shall cease to waste strength in competition and shall come to pool their powers of production is coming to pass all over the earth.
    Jane Addams (1860–1935)
