Ascending/comedy

Famous quotes containing the words ascending and/or comedy:

“To do good is like ascending a mountain; to do evil as easy as following an avalanche.”
—Chinese proverb.

“The difference between tragedy and comedy is the difference between experience and intuition. In the experience we strive against every condition of our animal life: against death, against the frustration of ambition, against the instability of human love. In the intuition we trust the arduous eccentricities we’re born to, and see the oddness of a creature who has never got acclimatized to being created.”
—Christopher Fry (b. 1907)
