Famous quotes containing the word numbers:
“And when all bodies meet
In Lethe to be drowned,
Then only numbers sweet
With endless life are crowned.”

And tags and numbers it for future reference,
So he can find and easily dislodge it
In the unloading. Silas does that well.
He takes it out in bunches like birds’ nests.”
