Dead Alive

Famous quotes containing the words dead and/or alive:

    The dead should be judged like criminals, impartially, but they should be allowed the benefit of the doubt.

    O how can it be that the ground itself does not sicken?
    How can you be alive you growths of spring?
    How can you furnish health you blood of herbs, roots, orchards, grain?
    Are they not continually putting distemper’d corpses within you?
    Is not every continent work’d over and over with sour dead?
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
