Unknown. The Unquiet Grave

Famous quotes containing the words unknown, unquiet and/or grave:

    If what you mean by the word “matter” be only the unknown support of unknown qualities, it is no matter whether there is such a thing or no, since it no way concerns us; and I do not see the advantage there is in disputing about what we know not what, and we know not why.
    George Berkeley (1685–1753)

    But where is laid the sailor John
    That so many lands had known,
    Quiet lands or unquiet seas
    Where the Indians trade or Japanese?
    He never found his rest ashore,
    Moping for one voyage more.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Confession is always weakness. The grave soul keeps its own secrets, and takes its own punishment in silence.
    Dorothy Dix (1861–1951)
