Dead Reckoning Plot

Famous quotes containing the words dead, reckoning and/or plot:

    “I began to realize that it was bigotry of the worst kind to say that it’s better to be dead than to be born retarded or blind or without a limb. It’s a value judgment you’re making about someone’s life, based on their degree of perfection.”
    —Juli Loesch (b. c. 1953)

    “With earth’s first clay they did the last man knead,
    There of the last harvest sowed the seed,
    And what the first morning of creation wrote,
    The last dawn of reckoning shall read.”
    —Edward Fitzgerald (1809–1883)

    “Trade and the streets ensnare us,
    Our bodies are weak and worn;
    We plot and corrupt each other,
    And we despoil the unborn.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
