Famous quotes containing the words sword and/or stone:
“Not marble nor the gilded monuments
Of princes shall outlive this powerful rime;
But you shall shine more bright in these contents
Than unswept stone, besmeared with sluttish time.
When wasteful war shall statues overturn,
And broils root out the work of masonry,
Nor Mars his sword nor war’s quick fire shall burn
The living record of your memory.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“I can well conceive a man without hands, feet, head.... But I cannot conceive man without thought; he would be a stone or a brute.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
