Famous quotes containing the words common, cell and/or lines:

    This was the noblest Roman of them all.
    All the conspirators save only he
    Did that they did in envy of great Caesar.
    He only, in a general honest thought
    And common good to all, made one of them.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I turn and turn in my cell like a fly that doesn’t know where to die.
    Antonio Gramsci (1891–1937)

    We joined long wagon trains moving south; we met hundreds of wagons going north; the roads east and west were crawling lines of families traveling under canvas, looking for work, for another foothold somewhere on the land.... The country was ruined, the whole world was ruined; nothing like this had ever happened before. There was no hope, but everyone felt the courage of despair.
    Rose Wilder Lane (1886–1968)
