Famous quotes containing the words show and/or live:
“The worst feature of this double consciousness is, that the two lives, of the understanding and of the soul, which we lead, really show very little relation to each other; never meet and measure each other: one prevails now, all buzz and din; and the other prevails then, all infinitude and paradise; and, with the progress of life, the two discover no greater disposition to reconcile themselves.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“It is well for our vanity that we slay the criminal, for if we suffered him to live he might show us what we had gained by his crime.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
