Famous quotes containing the word terms:
“Ive never been on good terms with God, but now Im becoming His intimate, for He is truly absolute and extremely legitimate.”

“Consider his life which was valueless
In terms of employment, hotel ledgers, news files.
Consider. One bullet in ten thousand kills a man.
Ask. Was so much expenditure justified
On the death of one so young and so silly
Lying under the olive tree, O world, O death?”
