Famous quotes containing the words unknown and/or wind:
“Natures law says that the strong must prevent the weak from living, but only in a newspaper article or textbook can this be packaged into a comprehensible thought. In the soup of everyday life, in the mixture of minutia from which human relations are woven, it is not a law. It is a logical incongruity when both strong and weak fall victim to their mutual relations, unconsciously subservient to some unknown guiding power that stands outside of life, irrelevant to man.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (18601904)
“Is that the wind dying? O no;
Its only two devils, that blow
Through a murderers bones, to and fro,
In the ghosts moonshine.”
—Thomas Lovell Beddoes (18031849)
