The mocker will not have the last laugh. You see, dancing on the grave of an extinguished Christianity is farcical at best. Because the grave is empty. And the one who knows the way out of the grave sits in the heavens and laughs.

Ravi Zacharias

A rut is a grave with the ends knocked out.

Laurence J. Peter

A rut is a grave with the ends kicked out.

Earl Nightingale

You can't say life is useless because it ends in the grave.

Joseph Campbell

Out of the total number of the persons designated for the execution, fifteen men were led in each case to the brink of the mass grave where they had to kneel down, their faces turned towards the grave. When the men were ready for the execution one of my leaders who was in charge of this execution squad gave the order to shoot. Since they were kneeling on the brink of the mass grave, the victims fell, as a rule, at once into the mass grave.

Paul Blobel

Vanity of vanities… all is vanity.’ You kill yourself to get to the grave. Especially you kill yourself to get to the grave before you die; and the name of the grave is ‘success’, the name of that grave is hullabullo boom boom horseshit.

Jack Kerouac

We hear much nowadays as to the speculative ideas of men concerning the condition beyond the grave; but the admission that there is an individual existence beyond the grave, is a declaration that there must have been an individual, intelligent creation before we came here in the flesh. Life beyond the grave postulates a pre-existent state.

James E. Talmage

What's the trick? There are three of them: A sense of real purpose, a sense of humor, and a sense of constant curiosity. Keep using those to the grave because learning really never ends.

Liz Carpenter

Death ends our woes, and the kind grave shuts up the mournful scene.

John Dryden

Oh the grave!--the grave!--It buries every error--covers every defect--extinguishes every resentment! From its peaceful bosom spring none but fond regrets and tender recollections. Who can look down upon the grave even of an enemy, and not feel a compunctious throb, that he should ever have warred with the poor handful of earth that lies mouldering before him!

Washington Irving

The pursuit of knowledge is but a course between two ignorances, as human life is itself only a wayfaring from grave to grave.

Sir William Hamilton, 9th Baronet

My only answer is, if my grave stood open on one side and you upon the other I'd go into my grave before I would take one step to meet you.

Louisa May Alcott

Brand loyalty starts in the cradle and ends in the grave, as I wrote in my first book, 'Branded: The Buying and Selling of Teenagers.'

Alissa Quart

Pleasure represents a great good but also a grave danger.

Philip Yancey

The treasures of Cathay were never found. In this America, this wilderness Where the axe echoes with a lonely sound, The generations labor to possess And grave by grave we civilize the ground.

Louis Simpson

Great is the rose That challenges the crypt, And quotes milleniums Against the grave.

Nathalia Crane
