Dies

Famous quotes containing the word dies:

    In a sense the world dies every time a writer dies, because, if he is any good, he has been a wet nurse to humanity during his entire existence and has held earth close around him, like the little obstetrical toad that goes about with a cluster of eggs attached to his legs.
    —E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)

    She never dies, but lasteth
    In life of lover’s heart;
    He ever dies that wasteth
    In love his chiefest part.
    Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)

    A speculator is a man who, if he dies at the right time, has a rich widow.
    Christina Stead (1902–1983)
