Dying Hercules

Famous quotes containing the words dying and/or hercules:

“To die is but to leave off dying and do the thing once for all.”

“I expect a time when, or rather an integrity by which, a man will get his coat as honestly and as perfectly fitting as a tree its bark.

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
