Perishing Quotes (page 7)

It may...be judged indecent in me to come forward on this occasion; but when I see a fellow-creature about to perish through the cowardice of her pretended friends, I wish to be allowed to speak, that I may say what I know of her character. Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
THOUGH you are in your shining days, Voices among the crowd. And new friends busy with your praise, Be not unkind or proud, But think about old friends the most: Time's bitter flood will rise, Your beauty perish and be lost. For all eyes but these eyes. William Butler Yeats
Mitch Albom quote: "Love each other or Perish"
Love each other or Perish Mitch Albom
If the gods listened to the prayers of men, all humankind would quickly perish since they constantly pray for many evils to befall one another. Epicurus
Well, here he was. They could save each other, the way the poets promised lovers should. He was mystery, he was darkness, he was all she had dreamed of. And if she would only free him he would service her - oh yes - until her pleasure reached that threshold that, like all thresholds, was a place where the strong grew stronger, and the weak perished. Pleasure was pain there, and vice versa. And he knew it well enough to call it home. Clive Barker
Hate is just as injurious to the hater as it is to the hated. Like an unchecked cancer, hate corrodes the personality and eats away its vital unity. Many of our inner conflicts are rooted in hate. This is why the psychiatrists say, "Love or perish." Hate is too great a burden to bear. Martin Luther King jr.
Dean Koontz quote: "In the belly of Leviathan, Mr Thomas, one can either despair..."
In the belly of Leviathan, Mr Thomas, one can either despair and perish, or be cheerful and persevere. Dean Koontz
He keeps going, going, going on; his people groan and fall one after the other, but he keeps on going, going and in the end, perishes himself, but still remains the despot and tsar of the desert because the cross over his grave is visible to caravans thirty-forty miles away and reigns over the wasteland. Anton Chekhov
Some say the world will end in fire, Some say in ice. From what I've tasted of desire. I hold with those who favor fire. But if it had to perish twice,...... I think I know enough of hate. To say that for destruction ice. Is also great. And would suffice Stephenie Meyer
Be nobody's darling; Be an outcast. Take the contradictions Of your life And wrap around You like a shawl, To parry stones To keep you warm. Watch the people succumb To madness With ample cheer; Let them look askance at you And you askance reply. Be an outcast; Be pleased to walk alone (Uncool) Or line the crowded River beds With other impetuous Fools. Make a merry gathering On the bank Where thousands perished For brave hurt words They said. Be nobody's darling; Be an outcast. Qualified to... Alice Walker
In the fairy tale, an incomprehensible happiness rests upon an incomprehensible condition. A box is opened and all evils fly out. A word is forgotten and cities perish. A lamp is lit and love flies away. An apple is eaten and the hope of God is gone. Gilbert K. Chesterton
People today have forgotten they're really just a part of nature. Yet, they destroy the nature on which our lives depend. They always think they can make something better. Especially scientists. They may be smart, but most don't understand the heart of nature. They only invent things that, in the end, make people unhappy. Yet they're so proud of their inventions. What's worse, most people are, too. They view them as if they were miracles. They worship them. They don't know it, but they're... Akira Kurosawa
Dorothy L. Sayers quote: "Here be dragons to be slain, here be rich rewards to gain; If..."
Here be dragons to be slain, here be rich rewards to gain; If we perish in the seeking, why, how small a thing is death! Dorothy L. Sayers
Yet across the gulf of space, minds that are to our minds as ours are to those of the beasts that perish, intellects vast and cool and unsympathetic, regarded this earth with envious eyes, and slowly and surely drew their plans against us. H. G. Wells
John Knowles quote: "Everything has to evolve or else it perishes."
