Fast Escape

Famous quotes containing the words fast and/or escape:

“Endlessly, time-honoured irritant,
A bubble is restively forming at your tip.
Burst it as fast as we can
It will grow again, until we begin dying.”

“Fatigue dulls the pain, but awakes enticing thoughts of death. So! that is the way in which you are tempted to overcome your loneliness—by making the ultimate escape from life..—No! It may be that death is to be your ultimate gift to life: it must not be an act of treachery against it.”
—Dag Hammarskjöld (1905–1961)
