Pennington Completed Long

Famous quotes containing the words completed and/or long:

“A great biography should, like the close of a great drama, leave behind it a feeling of serenity. We collect into a small bunch the flowers, the few flowers, which brought sweetness into a life, and present it as an offering to an accomplished destiny. It is the dying refrain of a completed song, the final verse of a finished poem.”
—André Maurois (1885–1967)

“As long as there are men the bulwark is safe.”
—Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)
