Dead Roots

Famous quotes containing the words dead and/or roots:

    They have given us into the hand of new unhappy lords,
    Lords without anger and honour, who dare not carry their swords.
    They fight by shuffling papers; they have bright dead alien eyes;
    They look at our labour and laughter as a tired man looks at flies.
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

    Sensuality often accelerates the growth of love so much that its roots remain weak and are easily pulled up.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
