Famous quotes containing the words man and/or approaching:
“A man calumniated is doubly injured—first by him who utters the calumny, and then by him who believes it.”
—Herodotus (c. 484–425 B.C.)
“... in spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart. I simply can’t build up my hopes on a foundation consisting of confusion, misery, and death. I see the world gradually being turned into a wilderness, I hear the ever approaching thunder, which will destroy us too, I can feel the sufferings of millions and yet, if I look up into the heavens, I think that it will all come right, that this cruelty too will end, and that peace and tranquillity will return again.”
—Anne Frank (1929–1945)
