Famous quotes containing the word days:
“In days gone by, we were afraid of dying in dishonor or a state of sin. Nowadays, we are afraid of dying fools. Now the fact is that there is no Extreme Unction to absolve us of foolishness. We endure it here on earth as subjective eternity.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
“There lived a sage in days of yore,
And he a handsome pigtail wore;
But wondered much, and sorrowed more,
Because it hung behind him.”
—Adelbert Von Chamisso (1781–1838)
“The others died, the luck of it blurting through them.
I could not, I was a silly broken umbrella
and oblivion would not kiss me. For three days it
was thus.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
