Famous quotes containing the word ashes:
“Whom I most hated living, thou hast made me
With thy religious truth and modesty,
Now in his ashes honor.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“How utterly futile debauchery seems once it has been accomplished, and what ashes of disgust it leaves in the soul! The pity of it is that the soul outlives the body, or in other words that impression judges sensation and that one thinks about and finds fault with the pleasure one has taken.”
—Edmond De Goncourt (1822–1896)
“Man is no starre, but a quick coal
Of mortall fire:
Who blows it not, nor doth controll
A faint desire,
Lets his own ashes choke his soul.”
—George Herbert (1593–1633)
