High Death

Famous quotes containing the words high and/or death:

“It was a high counsel that I once heard given to a young person,—”Always do what you are afraid to do.””
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“What I call middle-class society is any society that becomes rigidified in predetermined forms, forbidding all evolution, all gains, all progress, all discovery. I call middle-class a closed society in which life has no taste, in which the air is tainted, in which ideas and men are corrupt. And I think that a man who takes a stand against this death is in a sense a revolutionary.”
—Frantz Fanon (1925–1961)
