The whole earth is ordsprog

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.

Pericles

The greatest monument to the courage of Americans is the world they saved and shaped. And their story is not written in stone; it is woven into the lives of everyone who loves freedom.

George W. Bush (1946-)

What you leave behind is not what is engraved in stone monuments, but what is woven into the lives of others.

Pericles

The reason progress is slow is that we always expect other men to be the heroes and to live the heroic lives. But we all have hero stuff in us. In our sphere of life we can always live more heroically and triumphantly and grow in heroic stature.

Wilferd A. Peterson (1933-)

I don't have a heroic personal story, but I do know many people whose lives have been touched by cancer.

Sarah Sokoloski

Under this stone, reader, survey / Dead Sir John Vanbrugh's house of clay. / Lie heavy on him, Earth! For he / Laid many heavy loads on thee!

Abel Evans (1679-1737)

Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.

In a symbol there is concealment and yet revelation: here therefore, by silence and by speech acting together, comes a double significance. In the symbol proper, what we can call a symbol, there is ever, more or less distinctly and directly, some embodiment and revelation of the Infinite; the Infinite is made to blend itself with the Finite, to stand visible, and as it were, attainable there. By symbols, accordingly, is man guided and commanded, made happy, made wretched.

Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881)

Thomas Carlyle

Woman is not born: she is made. In the making, her humanity is destroyed. She becomes symbol of this, symbol of that: mother of the earth, slut of the universe; but she never becomes herself because it is forbidden for her to do so.

Andrea Dworkin (1946-)

Rock, stone, dust is this earth; this earth is supported, held together. To this golden-breasted earth I have rendered obeisance.

This is not an increasing phenomenon, but what has happened since Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans is the invisible class has suddenly become visible. Before, this stuff would have been unnoticed. Now it's becoming visible.

Alan Clapsaddle

When a total eclipse happens there is only a small band of the Earth from which you can see it. The March eclipse may be partially visible from Britain but it won't begin to compare with what's visible from the centre of the track.

Take away love and our earth is a tomb.

Robert Browning (1812-1889)

Robert Browning
