She is not old, she is not young, The Woman with the Serpent's Tongue. The haggard cheek, the hungering eye, The poisoned words that wildly fly, The famished face, the fevered hand, Who slights the worthiest in the land, Sneers at the just, contemns the brave, And blackens goodness in its grave.
William Watson
Image
In the end, we must restore a balance within ourselves between who we are and what we are doing. Each of us must take a greater personal responsibility for this deteriorating global environment each of us must take a hard look at the habits of mind and action that reflect - and have led to - this grave crisis.
Al Gore

But an old age serene and bright, and lovely as a Lapland night, shall lead thee to thy grave.
William Wordsworth

One that would peep and botanize Upon his mother's grave.
William Wordsworth
Image
Either still I find Some imperfection in the chosen theme, Or see of absolute accomplishment Much wanting, so much wanting, in myself, That I recoil and droop, and seek repose In listlessness from vain perplexity, Unprofitably travelling towards the grave.
William Wordsworth
Image
To assume a cat's asleep is a grave mistake. He can close his eyes and keep both his ears awake.

Wim Wenders

When Brahms is in extra good spirits, he sings, The grave is my joy.
Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky

I wish I was dead,And lay deep in the grave.I've a pain in my head,I wish I was dead.In a coffin of lead-With the Wise and the Brave-I wish I was dead,And lay deep in the grave.
Maurice Baring

I think that retirement is the first step towards the grave.
Hugh Hefner

To every good friend I send my greet feet addio nitwit. Love true true true until the grave, if I live that long and do behave.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Image
Glad tidings to the one who leaves the world before it leaves him, prepares for his grave before he enters it, and pleases his Lord before he meets Him.
Yahya ibn Mu'adh al-Razi
Image
Posterity has never made the grave's embrace less cruel. It simply assuages our fear of death, because there is no better cure for out inevitable morality then the illusion of a beautiful eternity. But there is one illusion I still hold dear: that is the thought of an enlightened nation. That is the only future I still dream of.
Yasmina Khadra
Image
That bomb that took down that Russian airliner may have been the size of a soda can. And that bomb killed more people than all the Paris attackers combined. So this is still a grave threat.
Adam Schiff
Image
If my father was alive to hear that, he'd turn over in his grave.
Yogi Berra

My favorite Catholic holiday is Easter. For those of you that don't know, Easter is the day we celebrate Jesus rising from the grave and coming back to Earth as a rabbit that hides colored eggs.
Adam Ferrara

I hate this place. I shall hate it to my grave.
Wallis Simpson

For more than half a century, during which kingdoms and empires have fallen, this Union has stood unshaken. The patriots who formed it have long since descended to the grave yet still it remains, the proudest monument to their memory. . .
Zachary Taylor

The grave, where sets the orb of being, sets To rise, ascend, and culminate above Eternity's horizon evermore.

I have found a shaft, going 29 meters [95 feet, approximately] vertically down into the ground, exactly halfway between the Chefren Pyramid and the Sphinx. At the bottom, which was filled with water, we have found a burial chamber with four pillars. In the middle is a large granite sarcophagus which I expect to be the grave of Osiris, the god.
Zahi Hawass

All that grave weight of America Cancelled! Like Greece and Rome. The future in ruins!
Louis Simpson
Image
Smoking dope and hanging up Che's picture is no more a commitment than drinking milk and collecting postage stamps. A revolution in consciousness is an empty high without a revolution in the distribution of power. We are not interested in the greening of Amerika except for the grass that will cover its grave.
Abbie Hoffman
Image
I take a grave view of the press. It is the weak slat under the bed of democracy
A. J. Liebling
Image
Fame is an undertaker that pays but little attention to the living, but bedizens the dead, furnishes out their funerals, and follows them to the grave
