Famous quotes containing the words dead man, dead, man and/or walking:

    For my own part, I would rather be in company with a dead man than with an absent one; for if the dead man gives me no pleasure, at least he shows me no contempt; whereas the absent one, silently indeed, but very plainly, tells me that he does not think me worth his attention.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    You cannot do justice to the dead. When we talk about doing justice to the dead we are talking about retribution for the harm done to them. But retribution and justice are two different things.
    William, Lord Shawcross (b. 1902)

    As refined fare serves a hungry man as well as and no better than coarser food, the more pretentious artist will not dream of inviting the hungry man to his meal.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    ... never, walking away
    As light fails, to notice the first star
    Pulsing alone in a long shell-coloured sky....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
