Falling Man

Famous quotes containing the words falling and/or man:

“Freedom is the essence of this faith. It has for its object simply to make men good and wise. Its institutions then should be as flexible as the wants of men. That form out of which the life and suitableness have departed should be as worthless in its eyes as the dead leaves that are falling around us.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“A man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be merry.”
—Bible: Hebrew Ecclesiastes, 8:15.

Compare with Luke 12:19: “And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.”
