Famous Quotes & Sayings

Charles Wagner

Man passes; he knows that he is dust; nothing is more evident than his frailty. If he should for a single moment forget it, what a chorus of voices would recall it to him!

Legend and myth, all tangled in an alphabet of trees remembered, not always with understanding, but with wonder. With awe.
