Famous quotes containing the word sad:
“Scepticism, as I said, is not intellectual only; it is moral also; a chronic atrophy and disease of the whole soul. A man lives by believing something; not by debating and arguing about many things. A sad case for him when all that he can manage to believe is something he can button in his pocket, and with one or the other organ eat and digest! Lower than that he will not get.”
—Thomas Carlyle (17951881)
“And all sad scenes and thoughts and feelings vanish
In that sweet sleep no power can ever banish,
That one best sleep which never wakes again.”
—James Thomson (18341882)
“Despite everybody who has been born and has died, the world has just gone on. I mean, look at Napoleonbut we went right on. Look at Harpo Marxthe world went around, it didnt stop for a second. Its sad but true. John Kennedy, right?”
—Bob Dylan [Robert Allen Zimmerman] (b. 1941)
