Famous quotes containing the word died:
“There is a distinction to be drawn between true collectors and accumulators. Collectors are discriminating; accumulators act at random. The Collyer brothers, who died among the tons of newspapers and trash with which they filled every cubic foot of their house so that they could scarcely move, were a classic example of accumulators, but there are many of us whose houses are filled with all manner of things that we “can’t bear to throw away.””
—Russell Lynes (1910–1991)
“Because it shut not up the doors of my mother’s womb, nor hid
sorrow from mine eyes.
Why died I not from the womb?”
—Bible: Hebrew Job (l. III, 10–11)
“The very word “Christianity” is a misunderstanding—there was really only one Christian, and he died on the cross. The “evangel” died on the cross.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
