Famous quotes containing the word buried:
“Powerful, yes, that is the word that I constantly rolled on my tongue; I dreamed of absolute power, the kind that forces to kneel, that forces the enemy to capitulate, finally converting him, and the more the enemy is blind, cruel, sure of himself, buried in his conviction, the more his admission proclaims the royalty of he who has brought on his defeat.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
“We buried you in the unremissive ground.
I went home. Somewhere I heard the clang of a hearse.
You are very far away, dear Lady
As I light this cigarette and utter an inscrutable curse.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
“Knowledge is a polite word for dead but not buried imagination.”
—E.E. (Edward Estlin)
