Famous quotes containing the words dead and/or creature:
“Every society honors its live conformists and its dead troublemakers.”
—Mignon McLaughlin (b. 1915?)
“Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear—not absence of fear. Except a creature be part coward it is not a compliment to say it is brave; it is merely a loose application of the word. Consider the flea!—incomparably the bravest of all the creatures of God, if ignorance of fear were courage.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
