Fragments Survived

Famous quotes containing the words fragments and/or survived:

    Jesus and Shakespeare are fragments of the soul, and by love I conquer and incorporate them in my own conscious domain. His virtue,—is not that mine? His wit,—if it cannot be made mine, it is not wit.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    You survived because you were the first.
    You survived because you were the last.
    Because alone. Because the others.
    Because on the left. Because on the right.
    Because it was raining. Because it was sunny.
    Because a shadow fell.
    Wislawa Szymborska (b. 1923)
