Famous quotes containing the words final and/or stops:

    “Parents can only give [children] good advice or put them on their right paths, but the final forming of a person lies in their own hands.”
    —Anne Frank (20th century)

    “The end of all stories, even if the writer forebears to mention it, is death, which is where time stops short. Sheherezade knew this, which is why she kept on spinning another story out of the bowels of the last one, never coming to a point where she could say: “This is the end.” Because it would have been.”
    —Angela Carter (1940–1992)
