Famous quotes containing the words living and/or conditions:
“The living blind and seeing Dead together lie
As if in love . . . There was no more hating then,
And no more love; Gone is the heart of Man.”

all the conditions of its existence,
may have flaked off the paint, if ever it was painted,
and made it homelier than it was.”
