Bodies

Famous quotes containing the word bodies:

“There is a grandeur in the uniformity of the mass. When a fashion, a dance, a song, a slogan or a joke sweeps like wildfire from one end of the continent to the other, and a hundred million people roar with laughter, sway their bodies in unison, hum one song or break forth in anger and denunciation, there is the overpowering feeling that in this country we have come nearer the brotherhood of man than ever before.”
—Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

“Our souls belong to our bodies, not our bodies to our souls.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)

“What has this bugbear Death to frighten man,
If souls can die, as well as bodies can?”
—Lucretius (Titus Lucretius Carus)
