Died

Famous quotes containing the word died:

    “They said, “Here are the maps”; we burned the cities.
    It was not dying—no, not ever dying;

    We are satisfied, if you are; but why did I die?””
    —Randall Jarrell (1914–1965)

    —Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    “The very word “Christianity” is a misunderstanding—there was really only one Christian, and he died on the cross. The “evangel” died on the cross.”
