Famous quotes containing the word renan:

    “Let us pardon him his hope of a vain apocalypse, and of a second coming in great triumph upon the clouds of heaven. Perhaps these were the errors of others rather than his own; and if it be true that he himself shared the general illusion, what matters it, since his dream rendered him strong against death, and sustained him in a struggle to which he might otherwise have been unequal?”
    —Ernest Renan (1823–1892)

    “To be free in an age like ours, one must be in a position of authority. That in itself would be enough to make me ambitious.”
    —Ernest Renan (1823–1892)

    “I can die when I wish to: that is my elixir of life.”
    —Ernest Renan (1823–1892)
