Birth Year

Famous quotes containing the words birth and/or year:

    That was the birth of sin. Not doing it, but KNOWING about it. Before the apple, [Adam and Eve] had shut their eyes and their minds had gone dark. Now, they peeped and pried and imagined. They watched themselves.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Death’s a sad bone; bruised, you’d say,

    and yet she waits for me, year after year,
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
