Famous quotes containing the word dies:

    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.)

    We construct our life for one person and, when finally we are ready to receive that person in our life, she does not come, then dies in our eyes and we live as prisoners of that which was meant only for her.
    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)

    Man, became man through work, who stepped out of the animal kingdom as transformer of the natural into the artificial, who became therefore the magician, man the creator of social reality, will always stay the great magician, will always be Prometheus bringing fire from heaven to earth, will always be Orpheus enthralling nature with his music. Not until humanity itself dies will art die.
    Ernst Fischer (1899–1972)
