Dead Men

Famous quotes containing the words dead and/or men:

“Why the ghosts of poor old dead Romans should be dragged in every time a man eats an oyster, I don’t see. We’re as fine specimens as they were. I swear I shan’t let any old turned-to-clay Lucullus outlive me, even if I’ve never eaten a lamprey.”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)

““All men live in suffering
I know as few can know,
Whether they take the upper road
Or stay content on the low....””
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
