Famous quotes containing the word succession:

    “What is this world of ours? A complex entity subject to sudden changes which all indicate a tendency to destruction; a swift succession of beings which follow one another, assert themselves and disappear; a fleeting symmetry; a momentary order.”
    —Denis Diderot (1713–1784)
