Whoever finishes a revolution only halfway, digs his own grave.

The selfish man cuts away the sand from under his own feet, he digs his own grave; and every time, from the beginning of the world until now, God Almighty pushes him into the grave and covers him up.
Charles Henry Fowler
The grave will fall in upon him who digs it.
Leonardo da Vinci
Lichtenberg digs deeper than anyone... He speaks from the subterranean depths. Only he who himself digs deep hears him.
Georg Christoph Lichtenberg
Lichtenberg digs deeper than anyone... but he does not come up again. Only he hears him who digs deep himself.
Georg Christoph Lichtenberg
And so the Word had breath, and wrought
With human hands the creed of creeds
In loveliness of perfect deeds,
More strong than all poetic thoughts;
Which he may read that binds the sheaf,
Or builds the house, or digs the grave,
And those wild eyes that watch the waves
In roarings round the coral reef.Jesus Christ
