Famous quotes containing the words dead, man and/or walking:
“But it isn’t only the terror everywhere, and the fear of being conscious of it, that freezes people. It’s more than that. People know they are in a society dead or dying. They are refusing emotion because at the end of very emotion are property, money, power. They work and despise their work, and so freeze themselves. They love but know that it’s a half- love or a twisted love, and so they freeze themselves.”
—Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
“Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding.”
—Bible: Hebrew Proverbs, 17:28.
“And now where e’re he strayes
Among the Galilaean mountains,
Or more unwelcome wayes,
Hee’s follow’d by two faithfull fountaines,
Two walking Baths, two weeping motions;
Portable and compendious Oceans.”
—Richard Crashaw (1613?–1649)
