4 quotes by Charles Lamb · clear filters

Formerly, I thought that death was wearing out,--I stood ramparted about with so many healthy friends.

Whatsoever thwarts, or puts me out of my way, brings death into my mind.

My household-gods plant a terrible fixed foot, and are not rooted up without blood.

Not childhood alone, but the young man till thirty, never feels practically that he is mortal.
