Famous quotes containing the words short and/or stories:

    “Man that is born of woman hath but a short time to live, and is full of misery. He cometh up, and is cut down, like a flower; he fleeth as it were a shadow, and never continueth in one stay.”
    —“Burial of the Dead,” first anthem, Book of Common Prayer (1662)

    “the tide lays down its wet throat
    and alters the land to island—even as I watch
    I say there is no shore
    apart from stories of it,
    no smoke, no hut, no beacon ...”
    —Lynn Emanuel (b. 1949)
