Famous quotes containing the words dead and/or alive:
“the whole sea become an entanglement of watery bodies
lost to the world bearing what they cannot hold. Broken,
beaten, desolate, reaching from the dead to be taken up
they cry out, failing, failing! their cries rising
in waves still as the skillful yachts pass over.”
—William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
“The passion rebuilds the world for the youth. It makes all things alive and significant.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
