Individual Tombs

Famous quotes containing the words individual and/or tombs:

    The power of generalizing ideas, of drawing comprehensive conclusions from individual observations, is the only acquirement, for an immortal being, that really deserves the name of knowledge.
    Mary Wollstonecraft (1759–1797)

    “All that glistens is not gold,
    Often have you heard that told;
    Many a man his life hath sold
    But my outside to behold.
    Gilded tombs do worms infold.
    Had you been as wise as bold,
    Young in limbs, in judgment old,
    Your answer had not been inscrolled.
    Fare you well, your suit is cold.”
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
