withering

«Ah! What is man? Wherefore does he why? Whence did he whence? Whither is he withering?»
Author: Dan Leno | Keywords: withering
«All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, a light from the shadows shall spring; renenwed shall be blade that was broken, the crownless again shall be king.»
«A good character is the best tombstone. Those who loved you and were helped by you will remember you when forget-me-nots have withered. Carve your name on hearts, not on marble.»
«Age is not all decay; it is the ripening, the swelling, of the fresh life within, that withers and bursts the husk.»
«Love withers with predictability; its very essence is surprise and amazement. To make love a prisoner of the mundane is to take its passion and lose it forever.»
«I see America spreading disaster. I see America as a black curse upon the world. I see a long night settling in and that mushroom which has poisoned the world withering at the roots.»
«Faith is not a delicate flower which would wither away under the slightest stormy weather»
«Do not breed. Nothing gives less pleasure than childbearing. Pregnancies are damaging to health, spoil the figure, wither the charms, and it's the cloud of uncertainty forever hanging over these events that darkens a husband's mood.»
«My mind and body are sad and depressed, O my Lord of the Universe; without her Husband Lord, the soul-bride is withering away.»
«Maidens withering on the stalk.»
