First our pleasures die proverb

 First our pleasures die - and then our hopes, and then our fears - and when these are dead, the debt is due dust claims dust - and we die too
  Percy Bysshe Shelley

 Thy dead men shall live, together with my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.

 A lot of our fugitive dust problems arise when it gets very windy. What we have seen is when we see those dust storms, it's usually due to man-made activities, like construction.

 We had some big plays. This isn't the normal Vernon team you see with the three yards and a cloud of dust ? although we had clouds of dust today.

 The disk of dust orbiting a star, similar to the dust we feel formed our solar system.

 These processes are hidden behind clouds of dust. But longer wavelength infrared light penetrates the dust better.

 Why all this toil for triumphs of an hour? What tho' we wade in Wealth, or soar in Fame? Earth's highest station ends in "Here he lies;" and "Dust to dust" concludes the noblest songs
  Edward Young

 When I opened my eyes, the dust and shit was flying everywhere, the awning from the restaurant floating over our heads on to the roadway. We just staggered out on to the road. You could not see for the dust and dirt falling to the ground. Once everyone realised it was a bomb we just ran.

 The danger is actually worse when the water goes away, because you have hazardous materials more concentrated in muck and dust. People will more readily come back, and will try to clean their homes or porches. And they'll have toxic dust they'll be sweeping around. And they'll inhale it and ingest it.

 [But they saw the result.] When I opened my eyes, the dust and shit was flying everywhere, the awning from the restaurant floating over our heads on to the roadway, ... We just staggered out on to the road. You could not see for the dust and dirt falling to the ground. Once everyone realised it was a bomb we just ran.

 Life is real! Life is earnest! And the grave is not its goal; Dust thou art, to dust returnest, Was not spoken of the soul.
  Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
