Famous quotes containing the words ancient and, ancient and/or mythology:

    In an ancient and dead language, any recognition of living nature attracts us. These are such sentences as were written while grass grew and water ran. It is no small recommendation when a book will stand the test of mere unobstructed sunshine and daylight.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Here lies a man who was killed by lightning;
    He died when his prospects seemed to be brightening.
    He might have cut a flash in this world of trouble,
    But the flash cut him, and he lies in the stubble.
    Anonymous. From Booth, Epigrams Ancient and Modern (1863)

    One may as well preach a respectable mythology as anything else.
    Humphrey, Mrs. Ward (1851–1920)
