Dead

Famous quotes containing the word dead:

“So, when old hopes that earth was bettering slowly
Were dead and damned, there sounded ‘War is done!’
One morrow. Said the bereft, and meek, and lowly,
‘Will men some day be given to grace? yea, wholly,
And in good sooth, as our dreams used to run?’”
—Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

“Whoever neglects the arts when he is young has lost the past and is dead to the future.”
—Sophocles (497–406/5 B.C.)

“Years ago we discovered the exact point, the dead center of middle age. It occurs when you are too young to take up golf and too old to rush up to the net.”
—Franklin Pierce Adams (1881–1960)
