Famous quotes containing the words growing and/or ends:
“Lifethat is: continually shedding something that wants to die. Lifethat is: being cruel and inexorable against everything about us that is growing old and weakand not only about us. Lifethat is, then: being without reverence for those who are dying, who are wretched, who are ancient? Constantly being a murderer?And yet old Moses said: Thou shalt not kill.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (18441900)
“Mere human beings cant afford to be fanatical about anything.... Not even about justice or loyalty. The fanatic for justice ends by murdering a million helpless people to clear a space for his law-courts. If we are to survive on this planet, there must be compromises.”
—Storm Jameson (18911986)
