Deadly Companions

Famous quotes containing the words deadly and/or companions:

    The most deadly fruit is borne by the hatred which one grafts on an extinguished friendship.
    Gotthold Ephraim Lessing (1729–1881)

    There was never a man born so wise or good, but one or more companions came into the world with him, who delight in his faculty, and report it. I cannot see without awe, that no man thinks alone and no man acts alone, but the divine assessors who came up with him into life,—now under one disguise, now under another,—like a police in citizen’s clothes, walk with him, step for step, through all kingdoms of time.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
