Famous quotes containing the words henry and/or bury:

    ...expatriated Americans, even Henry James himself, have always seemed to me somewhat anchorless, rudderless, drifting before the wind.
    Virginia Crocheron Gildersleeve (1877–1965)

    We beg one hour of death, that neither she
    With widow’s tears may live to bury me,
    Nor weeping I, with wither’d arms, may bear
    My breathless Baucis to the sepulchre.’
    Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)
