Famous quotes containing the word final:

    Life is a series of diminishments. Each cessation of an activity either from choice or some other variety of infirmity is a death, a putting to final rest. Each loss, of friend or precious enemy, can be equated with the closing off of a room containing blocks of nerves ... and soon after the closing off the nerves atrophy and that part of oneself, in essence, drops away. The self is lightened, is held on earth by a gram less of mass and will.
    Coleman Dowell (1925–1985)

    The train rounds, bending to a scream,
    Taking the final level for the dive
    Under the river—
    Hart Crane (1899–1932)

    For I had expected always
    Some brightness to hold in trust,
    Some final innocence
    To save from dust;
    Stephen Spender (1909–1995)
