Grateful

Famous quotes containing the word grateful:

“Politicians—power itself—are abject because they merely embody the profound contempt people have for their own lives....

This inevitably kills them but they get their revenge by passing onto others the corpse of power.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

“It is grateful to make one’s way through this latest generation as through dewy grass.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“I could live without acting.... Acting is a gift I’ve received. And I’m grateful for it and I enjoy it. But it’s not the main point of my life. It never was.”
—Jeanne Moreau (b. 1928)
