Famous quotes containing the words surviving and/or works:
“Never have anything to do with the near surviving representatives of anyone whose name appears in the death column of the Times as having passed away.”
—Samuel Butler (18351902)
“Reason, the prized reality, the Law, is apprehended, now and then, for a serene and profound moment, amidst the hubbub of cares and works which have no direct bearing on it;Mis then lost, for months or years, and again found, for an interval, to be lost again. If we compute it in time, we may, in fifty years, have half a dozen reasonable hours.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
