Wiped the cold dew-drops from his cheek And sought the mourner's side again. Once more, dear lady, I must speak: Your last remaining son was slain Just at the closing of the fight Twas he who sent me here to-night. God knows, the man said afterward, The fight itself was not so hard.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Image
It is not right to glory in the slain
Homer
Image
Afflictions, persecutions, imprisonments, and death, we must expect, according to the scriptures, which tell us that the blood of those whose souls were under the altar could not be avenged on them that dwell on the earth, until their brethren should be slain as they were.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
Image
To fear the foe, since fear oppresseth strength, Gives, in your weakness, strength unto your foe, And so your follies fight against yourself. Fear, and be slain--so worse can come to fight And fight and die is death destroying death, Where fearing dying pays death servile breath.
William Shakespeare
Image
Jesus' life was a storm of controversy. The apostles, like the prophets before them, could hardly go a day without controversy. Paul said that he debated daily in the marketplace. To avoid controversy is to avoid Christ. We can have peace, but it is a servile and carnal peace where truth is slain in the streets.
R. C. Sproul
Image
What is plucked will grow again, What is slain lives on, What is stolen will remain-- What is gone is gone.
Peter S. Beagle
Image
They fought indeed and were slain, but it was to maintain the luxury and the wealth of other men.
Plutarch
Image
At the round earth's imagined corners, blow Your trumpets, angels, and arise, arise From death, you numberless infinities Of souls **** All whom war, dearth, age, agues, tyrannies, Despair, law, chance, hath slain.
John Donne
Image
The Morrigan’s ideas of sport and mine varied widely. As a Chooser of the Slain, she tends to enjoy nothing so much as a protracted war. She hangs out with Kali and the Valkyries and they have a death goddesses’ night out on the battlefield.
Kevin Hearne
Image
Now must we sing and sing the best we can, But first you must be told your character: Convicted cowards all, by kindred slain.
William Butler Yeats
Image
All whom war, dearth, age, agues, tyrannies, Despair, law, chance, hath slain.
John Donne
Image
Everlasting peace will come to the world when the last man has slain the last but one.
Adolf Hitler
Image
... you are not Christ's disciple, in the sense of following him, if this is not your way of life: rejected and slain daily!
Francis Schaeffer
Image
Lo! He comes with clouds descending, Once for favoured sinners slain Thousand thousand Saints attending Swell the triumph of His train.
Charles Wesley
Image
When the house of a great one collapses Many little ones are slain.
Bertolt Brecht
Image
Forsooth, I no longer toil in vain, To prove that demon pox warps the brain. So though 'ti pity, it's not in vain That the pox-ridden worm was slain: For to believe in me, you all must deign.
Cassandra Clare
Image
They must be slain by the Law before they can be made alive by the gospel.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It was not according to the Divine purpose that Jesus was slain at the Passover, but it was according to a human invention that he is declared to have been slain at this time. These attempts to connect the crucifixion with the Passover afford the strongest proof that it is a myth.
John Remsburg
Image
But now I know that there is no killing A thing like Love, for it laughs at Death. There is no hushing, there is no stilling That which is part of your life and breath. You may bury it deep, and leave behind you The land, the people that knew your slain It will push the sods from its grave, and find you On wastes of water or desert plain.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Image
There is a road that turning always Cuts off the country of Again. Archers stand there on every side And as it runstime's deer is slain, And lies where it has lain.
Edwin Muir
Image
Imagination, the traitor of the mind, has taken my solitude and slain it.
Robinson Jeffers
Image
I didn't react visually. This girl came up and knelt over the body and let out a God-awful scream that made me click the camera. (On photographing Mary Vecchio with slain student Jeffery Miller during the shootings of students at Kent State, April, 1970.)
John Filo
Image
The Qur'an says speak not of those who are slain in the way of God as dead, or die in the way of Allah as dead, they are alive, but you perceive not.
Louis Farrakhan
Image
One strange feeling, which I remember clearly, was a powerful link with the slain, particularly those that had fallen within the past hour or two. There was so much death around that life seemed almost indecent. Some men's uniforms were soaked with gobs of blood. The ground was sodden with it. I killed, too.
