Letter "I" » Inheritance
"And all to leave what with his toil he won,
To that unfeather'd two-legged thing, a son."
Author: John Dryden
About: Inheritance
"What we have inherited from our fathers and mothers is not all
that 'walks in us.' There are all sorts of dead ideas and
lifeless old beliefs. They have no tangibility, but they haunt
us all the same and we can not get rid of them. Whenever I take
up a newspaper I seem to see Ghosts gliding between the lines.
Ghosts must be all over the country. as thick as the sands of the
sea."
Author: Henrik Ibsen
About: Inheritance
"He lives to build, not boast, a generous race;
No tenth transmitter of a foolish face."
Author: Richard Savage
About: Inheritance
"What's ill-got scarce to a third heir descends,
Nor wrongful booty meets with prosperous ends.
[Lat., De male quaesitis vix gaudet tertius paeres,
Nec habet eventus sordida praeda bonos.]"
Author: Richard Savage
About: Inheritance
"If you want to see what your friends and family think of you, die broke, and see who comes to your funeral."
Author: Gregory Nunn
About: Inheritance
