Dies

Famous quotes containing the word dies:

“...there is hope for a tree, if it is cut down, that it will sprout again, and that its shoots will not cease. Though its root grows old in the earth, and its stump dies in the ground, yet at the scent of water it will bud and put forth branches like a young plant. But mortals die, and are laid low; humans expire, and where are they?”
—Bible: Hebrew, Job 14:7-10.

“When somebody dies we usually need reasons for consolation, not so much to alleviate our pain as to excuse ourselves for so readily feeling consoled.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“Of a couple
who have grown together,
sharing equally
their pleasures and pains
and whose love
in time
blooms fully,
the one who dies lives on;
the other one is dead.”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
