Falling Man

Famous quotes containing the words falling and/or man:

    The child does not begin to fall until she becomes seriously interested in walking, until she actually begins learning. Falling is thus more an indication of learning than a sign of failure.
    Polly Berrien Berends (20th century)

    Every man casts a shadow; not his body only, but his imperfectly mingled spirit. This is his grief. Let him turn which way he will, it falls opposite to the sun; short at noon, long at eve. Did you never see it?
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
