Famous quotes containing the words snake and/or skeleton:

    “The snake that cannot shed its skin perishes. Likewise those spirits who are prevented from changing their opinions; they cease to be spirits.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “The bone-frame was made for
    no such shock knit within terror,
    yet the skeleton stood up to it:
    the flesh? it was melted away,
    the heart burnt out, dead ember,
    tendons, muscles shattered, outer husk dismembered....”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
