Tomb Quotes

I believe in the sanctity of human life, from the womb to the tomb Picture Quote #1

When Jesus died on the cross the mercy of God did not become any greater. It could not become any greater, for it was already infinite. We get the odd notion that God is showing mercy because Jesus died. No - Jesus died because God is showing mercy. It was the mercy of God that gave us Calvary, not Calvary that gave us mercy. If God had not been merciful there would have been no incarnation, no babe in the manger, no man on a cross and no open tomb Picture Quote #1

The panel on the right portrayed Jesus emerging from his tomb, as Mary Magdalene, in a red dress (also iron, or perhaps grated particles of gold), holds out to him a purple garment (manganese dioxide) and a loaf of yellow bread (silver chloride) Picture Quote #1

He hath a fair sepulchre in the grateful stomach of the judicious epicure - and for such a tomb might be content to die Picture Quote #1

Inactivity and deprivation of all accustomed stimulus is not rest; it is a preparation for the tomb Picture Quote #1

There is no paradise except that which we create in the great tomb of the churches. There is no hell, no inferno except the frenzy of living Picture Quote #1

As the pearl ripens in the obscurity of its shell, so ripens in the tomb all the fame that is truly precious Picture Quote #1

The tomb is the pedestal of greatness. I make a distinction between God's great and the king's great Picture Quote #1

While man is growing, life is in decrease; and cradles rock us nearer to the tomb. Our birth is nothing but our death begun Picture Quote #1

The most magnificent and costly dome, is but an upper chamber to a tomb; no spot on Earth but has supplied a grave, and human skulls the spacious ocean pave Picture Quote #1

Death is the only monastery; the tomb is the only cell, and the grave that adjoins the convent is the bitterest mock of its futility Picture Quote #1

And they who for their country die shall fill an honored grave, for glory lights the soldier's tomb, and beauty weeps the brave Picture Quote #1

If a man do not erect in this age his own tomb ere he dies, he shall live no longer in monument than the bell rings and the widow weeps... An hour in clamor and a quarter in rheum Picture Quote #1

Tomb, thou shalt not hold him longer; death is strong, but life is stronger; stronger than the dark, the light; stronger than the wrong, the right; faith and hope triumphant say Christ will rise on Easter day Picture Quote #1

Faith, amid the disorders of a sinful life, is like the lamp burning in an ancient tomb Picture Quote #1

I cannot bid you bid my daughter live - that were impossible; but I pray you both, possess the people in messina here how innocent she died; and if your love can labor aught in sad invention, hang her an epitaph upon her tomb, and sing it to her bones - sing it tonight Picture Quote #1

At this Adonis smiles as in disdain, that in each cheek appears a pretty dimple. Love made those hollows, if himself were slain, he might be buried in a tomb so simple; foreknowing well, if there he came to lie, why, there love lived, and there he could not die Picture Quote #1

Most radiant Pyramus, most lily white of hue, of color like the red rose on triumphant brier, most brisky juvenal, and eke most lovely Jew, as true as truest horse, that yet would never tire, I'll meet thee, pyramus, at Ninny's tomb Picture Quote #1

Architecture is either the prophecy of an unformed society or the tomb of a finished one Picture Quote #1

The power of the resurrection means that nothing but the tomb is meant to be empty Picture Quote #1

I would give anything to know what you thought at the moment you died, pierce said. His voice echoed in the tomb. The flame went out Picture Quote #1

Obedience, as it regards the social relations, the rules of society, and the laws of nature and nature’s God, should commence at the cradle and end only at the tomb Picture Quote #1

The whole earth is the tomb of heroic men and their story is not given only on stone over their clay but abides everywhere without visible symbol woven into the stuff of other mens lives Picture Quote #1

They were being driven to a prison, through no fault of their own, in all probability for life. In comparison, how much easier it would be to walk to the gallows than to this tomb of living horrors! Picture Quote #1

It is normal for me to wake and find myself writing in the dark... or to be out of my tomb, caught in an unearthly world, alive with the images that haunt me Picture Quote #1

Let there be no inscription upon my tomb; let no man write my epitaph: no man can write my epitaph Picture Quote #1

Now you watch the parades and processions of hopeful and despairing people walking outside your tomb. They are all looking for the answer to the problem you know so well Picture Quote #1

Fate stalks us with depressing monotony from womb to tomb, and, when we are least expecting it, deals us a series of crushing blows from behind Picture Quote #1

Hell is both sides of the tomb, and a devil may be respectable and wear good clothes Picture Quote #1

I remember, in hot floods, the way he slept, still as death, with his face washed flat, stony as a carved tomb and exquisite. His weakness and his ravening bitter needs were terrible, and beautiful, and irresistible as an earthquake. He scalded or smothered anyone he needed, but his needing and the hurt that it caused me were the most life I have ever had. Remember what a poor thing I have always been and forgive me Picture Quote #1
