The grave being, I suspect, the sole commonwealth which attains
that dead flat of social equality that life in its every principle so
heartily abhors.
--Edward Bulwer-Lytton (1803—1873)
British novelist and politician.
_The Caxtons: A Family Picture_ [1867]

A few days after Fort Sumter, Lee left his house
on the hill and never went back to it. And within
a few more days it was a camp and then a
graveyard. The Secretary of War, to whom Lee
had written a note rejecting the Northern
command, saw to it that no one would want to
live there again. He ordered that soldiers' graves
should be planted close to the house. Later the
place was confiscated by the government and
became a military cemetery. It is now Arlington,
the national military cemetery.
--Alistair Cooke [Alfred Cooke] (1908—2004)
British-born American broadcater and journalist.
_America_ [1973]

...even if he had one foot in the grave.
--According to Desiderius Erasmus, Julian, as cited by Pomponius.

Go to the dull churchyard and see
Those hillocks of mortality.
Where proudest man is only found
By a small swelling in the ground.
--Thomas Flatman (1637—1688)
English poet and miniature painter.
_A Doomsday Thought_ [1659]

The paths of glory lead but to the grave.
--Thomas Gray (1716—1771)
English poet.
"Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard" [pub. 1751]

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal;
love leaves a memory no one can steal.
--from a headstone in Ireland.

Charles Lamb (1775—1834)
British essayist, poet, and literary critic.

When Charles Lamb was little more than a
toddler, his sister, Mary, took him for a
walk in the graveyard. The precocious little
boy read the laudatory epitaphs on the tomb-
stones, commemorating the deceased as
'virtuous,' 'charitable,' 'beloved,' and so on.
As they came away, he asked, 'Mary, where
are all the naughty people buried?'

--_Bartlett's Book of Anecdotes_
edited by Clifton Fadiman and Andrι Bernard [2000 ed.]

The consumer's side of the coffin lid is never ostentatious.

We give to each a tender thought, and pass
Out of graveyards with their tangled grass.
--Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807—1882)
American poet.
"Morituri Salutamus" [1875]


The grave itself is but a covered bridge,
Leading from light to light, through a brief darkness.
--Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807—1882)
American poet.
"The Golden Legend" [1851]


In the village churchyard she lies,
Dust is in her beautiful eyes,
No more she breathes, nor feels, nor stirs;
At her feet and at her head
Lies a slave to attend the dead,
But their dust is white as hers.

Was she a lady of high degree,
So much in love with the vanity
And foolish pomp of this world of ours?
Or was it Christian charity,
And lowliness and humility,
The richest and rarest of all dowers?

Who shall tell us? No one speaks;
No color shoots into those cheeks,
Either of anger or of pride,
At the rude question we have asked;
Nor will the mystery be unmasked
By those who are sleeping at her side.

Hereafter?--And do you think to look
On the terrible pages of that Book
To find her failings, faults, and errors?
Ah, you will then have other cares,
In your own short-comings and despairs,
In your own secret sins and terrors!

--Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807—1882)
American poet.
"In the Churchyard at Cambridge" in _Birds of Passage_ [1858]

-

We should teach our children to think no more of their bodies
when dead than they do of their hair when it is cut off, or of
their old clothes when they have done with them.
--George MacDonald (1824—1905)
Scottish writer and poet.
_Annals of a Quiet Neighborhood_ [1867]

In 1610, an unlikely monument to pi was built
in Holland. A tombstone in the graveyard of
Peter's Church in Leiden was supposedly engraved
with the numbers 2-8-8, representing the 33rd
through 35th digits of pi, calculated by the
mathematician who spent his last 14 years expanding
pi to 35 digits.
--Bruce Watson
_Smithsonian Magazine_

There'll be two dates on your tombstone
And all your friends will read 'em
But all that's gonna matter is
That little dash between 'em.
--Kevin Welch b.1955
lyrics, 'Pushing Up Daisies,'
in album: _Life Down Here On Earth_ [1995].

Dad and young son were in a cemetary looking at headstones.
The boy says, "Why do they bury two people in a grave, Daddy?"
The daddy says, "Don't be ridiculous, son. They don't do that."
"But Daddy," replied the boy, "it says right here, here lies so-
and-so, a lawyer and an honest man."

It is easy to believe that life is long and one's gifts are vast
— easy at the beginning, that is. But as the limits of life grow
more evident; it becomes clear that great work can be done
rarely, if at all.
--Alfred Adler (1870—1937)
Austrian psychologist.
_New Yorker_ [19 February 1972]

in the design, humanity in the execution, and moderation
in success.

Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Prussia 1862—1890.
He unified Germany with a series of successful wars and

Quoted in Charles Edward Bolton
_Travels in Europe and America_, p. 168 [1903].

Mountains appear more lofty the nearer they are
approached; but great men, to retain their altitude,
must only be viewed from a distance.
--Marguerite Blessington (1789—1849)
Irish novelist and poet.
_Desultory Thoughts and Reflections_, p. 43 [1839]

Greatness, after all, in spite of its name, appears to be
not so much a certain size as a certain quality in human
lives. It may be present in lives whose range is very
small.
--Phillips Brooks (1835—1893)
American religious leader.

He who ascends to mountaintops, shall find
The loftiest peaks most wrapt in clouds and snow;
He who surpasses or subdues mankind,
Must look down on the hate of these below.
--Lord Byron [George Gordon Byron] (1788—1824)
English Romantic poet and satirist.
"Childe Harold's Pilgrimage" [1818]

The greatest man is he who chooses the right with invincible
resolution, who resists the sorest temptations from within
and without, who bears the heaviest burdens cheerfully,
who is calmest in storms and most fearless under menace
and frowns, whose reliance on truth, on virtue, on God,
is most unfaltering.
--William Ellery Channing (1780—1842)
American Unitarian clergyman and author.
"Self-Culture" Address delivered in Boston [September 1838].

Physical courage, which despises all danger,
will make a man brave in one way; and moral
courage, which despises all opinion, will make
a man brave in another. The former would
seem most necessary for the camp, the latter
for council; but to constitute a great man, both
are necessary.
--C.C. Colton (1780—1832)
English clergyman and writer.

Man is only great when he acts from his passions.

the results of his thoughts in clear form.

German-American physicist.
Letter to Morris Raphael Cohen [19 March 1940].

--Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803—1882)
American philosopher and poet.
"Literary Ethics" Speech at Dartmouth College [24 July 1838].


It is easy in the world to live after the world's opinion; it
is easy in solitude to live after our own; but the great man
is he who in the midst of the crowd keeps with perfect
sweetness the independence of solitude.
--Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803—1882)
American philosopher and poet.
_Essays: First Series_ [1841] "Self-Reliance"


A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little
statesmen and philosophers and divines. With consistency a great soul
has simply nothing to do. He may as well concern himself with his
shadow on the wall. Speak what you think now in hard words, and
to-morrow speak what to-morrow thinks in hard words again, though
it contradict every thing you said to-day. - 'Ah, so you shall be sure to
be misunderstood.' — Is it so bad, then, to be misunderstood?
Pythagoras was misunderstood, and Socrates, and Jesus, and Luther,
and Copernicus, and Galileo, and Newton, and every pure and wise
spirit that ever took flesh. To be great is to be misunderstood.
--Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803—1882)
American philosopher and poet.

truly great man that was not at the same
time truly virtuous.

There are no great men, only great challenges
that ordinary men are forced by circumstances
to meet.

American naval commander who led
campaigns in the Pacific during WWII.

commonly gone hand in hand, equalling and honoring each
other in the same ages.
--John Milton (1608—1674)
English poet.
_The History of England_, bk II [1670]

We will find in the lives of men who have done anything,
of those whom we call great men, that it is this spirit of
adventure, the call of the unknown, that has lured and
urged them along on their course ... All of us are explorers
in life, whatever trail we follow ... It is the explorers with
the true spirit of adventure we now need if humanity
shall really overcome the present difficulties ... Ah, youth.
What a glorious word! Unknown realms ahead of you,
hidden behind the mists of the morning. As you move
on, new islands appear, mountain summits shoot up
through the peering mists, one behind another, waiting
for you to climb; dense new forests unfold for you to
explore, free boundless plains for you to traverse.

not simplicity, goodness, and truth.
--Leo Tolstoy (1828—1910)
Russian novelist.


In historical events great men — so-called — are but labels
serving to give a name to the event, and like labels, they have
the least possible connection with the event itself. Every action
of theirs, that seems to them an act of their own free-will, is
in an historical sense not free at all, but in bondage to the
whole course of previous history, and predestined from all
eternity.

Russian novelist.

A frenzy seized my soul ... Piles of gold rose up before me
... castles of marble, thousands of slaves ... myriads of fair
virgins contending with each other for my love — were among
the fancies of my fevered imagination. The Rothschilds,
Girards, and Astors appeared to be but poor people; in short,
I had a very violent attack of gold fever.
--Hubert Howe Bancroft [1849]

No utopia can ever give satisfaction to everyone, all the time.
As their material conditions improve, men raise their sights

still remain the searchings of the mind and the longings of
the heart.

Many persons think that by hoarding money they are gaining

Without these qualities, money is practically useless.

Among the many other questions raised by the
nebulous concept of 'greed' is why it is a term
applied almost exclusively to those who want
to earn more money or want to keep what they

wishing to live on the largess dispensed from
some taxation.

THINGS THAT HALLMARK CARDS DON'T SAY


My tire was thumping.
I thought it was flat
When I looked at the tire...
I noticed your cat.
Sorry!

Heard your wife left you,
How upset you must be.
But don't fret about it...
She moved in with me.

How could two people as beautiful as you
Have such an ugly baby?

We have been friends for a very long time ..
What say we stop?

Congratulations on your new bundle of joy.
Did you ever find out who the father was?

Your friends and I wanted to do
something special for your birthday.
So we're having you put to sleep.

So your daughter's a hooker,
and it spoiled your day.
Look at the bright side,
it's really good pay.

Greek tragic dramatist.
Quoted in Julie K. Cicero _Waking Up Alone_, p. 115 [2007].

It is dangerous to abandon one's self to the luxury of grief:
it deprives one of courage, and even of the wish for recovery.

Swiss critic.

They truly mourn that mourn without a witness.

To spare oneself from grief at all cost can be achieved only
at the price of total detachment, which excludes the ability
to experience happiness.
--Erich Fromm (1900—1980)
American philosopher and psychologist.
Quoted in Jan Sutton _1000 Pocket Positives_, p. 51 [2003].

What an argument in favor of social connections is the
observation that, by communicating our grief we have

While grief is fresh, every attempt to divert only irritates.
You must wait till grief be digested, and then amusement

In James Boswell _The Life of Samuel Johnson_ [1791]
"10 April 1776"


He who has so little knowledge of human nature, as to
seek happiness by changing any thing but his own
dispositions, will waste his life in fruitless efforts, and

Grief knits two hearts in closer bonds than happiness
ever can; and common sufferings are far stronger
links than common joys.
--Alphonse de Lamartine (1790—1869)
French poet, novelist, and statesman.
_Raphaλl, or Pages of the Book of Life at Twenty_ [1849]

Part of every misery is, so to speak, the misery's
shadow or reflection: the fact that you don't merely
suffer but have to keep on thinking about the fact
that you suffer. I not only live each endless day in
grief, but live each day thinking about living each
day in grief.
--C.S. [Clive Staples] Lewis (1898—1963)
British scholar and novelist.
"A Grief Observed" (1961)
Originally published under the pseudonym N. W. Clerk.
(About the death of his wife, Joy, in 1960.)

He who walks through a great city to find
subjects for weeping, may, God knows,
find plenty at every corner to wring his
heart; but let such a man walk on his
course, and enjoy his grief alone — we
are not of those who would accompany
him. The miseries of us poor earthdwellers
gain no alleviation from the sympathy of
those who merely hunt them out to be
pathetic over them. The weeping
philosopher too often impairs his eyesight
by his woe, and becomes unable from
his tears to see the remedies for the evils
which he deplores. Thus it will often be
found that the man of no tears is the
truest philanthropist, as he is the best
physician who wears a cheerful face,
even in the worst of cases.
--Charles Mackay (1814—1889)
Scottish poet and newspaperman.
_Extraordinary Popular Delusions And The Madness Of Crowds_ [1841]

Happiness is beneficial for the body but it is
grief that develops the powers of the mind.

No grief reaches the dead.

Roman historian.
Quoted in Craufurd Tait Ramage _Great Thoughts
from Latin Authors_, p. 497 [3rd ed. 1884].

No one feels another's grief, no one understands
another's joy. People imagine they can reach one
another. In reality they only pass each other by.
--Franz Peter Schubert (1797—1828)
Austrian composer.

That grief is light which can take counsel.

Why destroy present happiness by a distant misery, which
may never come at all, or you may never live to see it? For
every substantial grief has twenty shadows, and most of
them shadows of your own making.
--Sydney Smith (1771—1845)
English clergyman and essayist,
in 1802 co-founded "The Edinburgh Review."
Quoted in _The Irish Quarterly Review_, Vol. V [1855].

There are those among us that live in rooms
of experience that you and I can never enter.

American novelist.

The bitterest tears shed over graves are for words
left unsaid and deeds left undone.

American writer and philanthropist.
[Sister of Henry Ward Beecher, daughter of Lyman Beecher.]

In youth, grief comes with a rush and overflow, but it dries up,
too, like the torrent. In the winter of life it remains a miserable
pool, resisting all evaporation.

Russian-born French writer and salon hostess.
In Count de Falloux (ed.)

He that conceals his grief finds no remedy for it.

--Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835—1910)
American humorist, novelist, journalist, and river pilot.
_Following the Equator_ [1897]
"Pudd'nhead Wilson's New Calendar"

Joy and grief are never far apart. In the same street the
shutters of one house are closed, while the curtains of
the next are brushed by shadow of the dance. A wedding-
party returns from church, and a funeral winds to its door.
The smiles and the sadness of life are the tragi-comedy
of Shakespeare. Gladness and sighs brighten and dim
the mirror he beholds.
--Robert Aris Willmott (1809—1863)
English editor and author.

You can't go back home to your family —
To a young man's dream of fame and glory,
To the country cottage away from strife and conflict,
To the father you have lost,
To the old forms and systems of things,
Which seemed everlasting but are changing all the time.
--Thomas Wolfe (1900—1938)
American novelist.
_You Can't Go Home Again_ [1940]

Excess of grief for the dead is madness; for it is an
injury to the living, and the dead know it not.

Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that
they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses
slowly, and one by one.
--Charles Mackay (1814—1889)
Scottish poet and newspaperman.
_Extraordinary Popular Delusions And The Madness Of Crowds_ [1841]

Insanity is something rare in individuals — but
in groups, parties, and nations, it is the rule.
--Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (1844—1900)
German classical scholar, philosopher, and critic of culture.
_Beyond Good and Evil_ [1885-1886],
pt. 4 "Maxims and Interludes"

Whenever the roles of individuals within a group become specialized,
it becomes both possible and easy for the individual to pass the moral
buck to some other part of the group. In this way, not only does the
individual forsake his conscience but the conscience of the group as
a whole can become so fragmented and diluted as to be nonexistent.
. . . The plain fact of the matter is that any group will remain inevitably
potentially conscienceless and evil until such time as each and every
individual holds himself or herself directly responsible for the behavior
of the whole group - the organism - of which he or she is a part.
--Scott Peck (1936—2005)
American author.
_People of the Lie_ [1983]

All assemblages of man are different from the men
themselves. Neither intelligence nor culture can
prevent a mob from acting as a mob. The wise
man and the knave lose their identity and merge
themselves into a new being.
--Thomas Brackett Reed (1839—1902)
American lawyer and politician.
In a speech at Bowdoin College, Maine [25 July 1902].

-

"Well, there were sixty-eight people there, and sixty-two of
them had no more desire to throw a stone than you had."

"Satan!"

"Oh, it's true. I know your race. It is made up of sheep. It is
governed by minorities, seldom or never by majorities. It
suppresses its feelings and its beliefs and follows the handful
that makes the most noise. Sometimes the noisy handful is
right, sometimes wrong; but no matter, the crowd follows it.
The vast majority of the race, whether savage or civilized,
are secretly kind-hearted and shrink from inflicting pain, but
in the presence of the aggressive and pitiless minority they
don't dare to assert themselves. Think of it! One kind-hearted
creature spies upon another, and sees to it that he loyally
helps in iniquities which revolt both of them. Speaking as
an expert, I know that ninety-nine out of a hundred of your
race were strongly against the killing of witches when that
foolishness was first agitated by a handful of pious lunatics
in the long ago. And I know that even to-day, after ages of
transmitted prejudice and silly teaching, only one person in
twenty puts any real heart into the harrying of a witch. And
yet apparently everybody hates witches and wants them
killed. Some day a handful will rise up on the other side
and make the most noise — perhaps even a single daring
man with a big voice and a determined front will do it —
and in a week all the sheep will wheel and follow him, and
witch-hunting will come to a sudden end."

--Irving Berlin (1888—1989)
American songwriter.
Birthday message to Groucho Marx,
quoted in Groucho Marx, _The Groucho Phile_ [1976].

I fell in love with Groucho when I was 14 and he
was in his 80s making a guest appearance on the Bill
Cosby show. I went on a crusade to see all their
movies, like staying up to watch the late show.
Sometimes a local television station presented
"Slapstick Cinema" on Sunday afternoons featuring
the Marxes or W.C. Fields, Mae West. I spent the
summer I was 14 in the library reading all the old
magazine articles and books about the Marxes I
could find. I worked up the courage to write to
Groucho, telling of all the works I had read about
him. I received in the mail an 8x10 photograph of
Groucho, Chico and Harpo in costume, with the
words: "I deny everything! Groucho" scrawled
across the top.
--Deb, alt.quotations

On his climb up the ladder he has enjoyed life to
the utmost. He has shaken hands with Presidents,
danced cheek to cheek with Marlene Dietrich,
played baseball with Lou Gehrig, traded backhands
with Jack Kramer, strummed guitar duets with the
great Segovia, and he's insulted nearly everyone
worth insulting.

The maξtre d'hτtel stopped Groucho as he was
about to enter the dining room of a smart Los
Angeles hotel. 'I am sorry, sir, but you have
no necktie.'

'That's all right,' said Groucho, 'don't be sorry.
I remember the time when I had no pants.'

'I am sorry, sir,' repeated the man, 'you cannot
enter the dining room without a necktie.'

Groucho caught sight of a bald man in the
center of the dining room and yelled, 'Look!
Look at him! You won't let me in without
a necktie, but you let him in without his
hair!'
