Perish

Famous quotes containing the word perish:

    Remember stories you read when a boy
    The shipwrecked sailor gaining safety by
    His knife, treetrunk, and lianas for now
    You must escape, or perish saying no.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    If the wild bowler thinks he bowls,
    Or if the batsman thinks he’s bowled,
    They know not, poor misguided souls,
    They, too, shall perish unconsoled.
    Andrew Lang (1844–1912)

    Only when manhood is dead—and it will perish when ravaged femininity no longer sustains it—only then will we know what it is to be free.
    Andrea Dworkin (b. 1946)
