Died

Famous quotes containing the word died:

    Now, look Dutchy, Joe died flying, didn’t he? That was his job. He just wasn’t good enough. That’s why he got it.
    Jules Furthman (1888–1960)

    I died before bedtime came
    But my womb was bellowing
    And I felt with my bare fall
    A blazing red harsh head tear up
    And the dear floods of his hair.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    It is true, these Roman Catholics, priests and all, impress me as a people who have fallen far behind the significance of their symbols. It is as if an ox had strayed into a church and were trying to bethink himself. Nevertheless, they are capable of reverence; but we Yankees are a people in whom this sentiment has nearly died out, and in this respect we cannot bethink ourselves even as oxen.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
