Survivor Characters

Famous quotes containing the words survivor and/or characters:

“You’re looking, sir, at a very dull survivor of a very gaudy life. Crippled, paralyzed in both legs. Very little I can eat, and my sleep is so near waking that it’s hardly worth the name. I seem to exist largely on heat, like a newborn spider.”
—William Faulkner (1897–1962)

“For our vanity is such that we hold our own characters immutable, and we are slow to acknowledge that they have changed, even for the better.”
