Shared Facts

Famous quotes containing the words shared and/or facts:

    Let us pardon him his hope of a vain apocalypse, and of a second coming in great triumph upon the clouds of heaven. Perhaps these were the errors of others rather than his own; and if it be true that he himself shared the general illusion, what matters it, since his dream rendered him strong against death, and sustained him in a struggle to which he might otherwise have been unequal?
    Ernest Renan (1823–1892)

    Birth, and copulation, and death.
    That’s all the facts when you come to brass tacks:
    Birth, and copulation, and death.
    I’ve been born, and once is enough.
    You dont remember, but I remember,
    Once is enough.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
