“And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.”
Bible
“He's not pining, he's passed on. This parrot is no more. He has ceased to be. He's expired and gone to meet his maker. He's a stiff, bereft of life, he rests in peace. If you hadn't have nailed him to the perch he'd be pushing up the daisies. He's rung down the curtain and joined the choir invisible. This is an ex-parrot!”
Monty Python
“The hypocrite who always plays one and the same part ceases at last to be a hypocrite”
Friedrich Nietzsche
“One is still what one is going to cease to be and already what one is going to become. One lives one's death, one dies one's life.”
Jean-Paul Sartre
“When one ceases from conflict, whether because he has won, because he has lost, or because he cares no more for the game, the virtue passes out of him.”
Charles Horton Cooley
“Who ceases to be a friend never was one.”
Greek proverb
“The cause ceasing, the effect ceases also.”
Edward Coke
