Famous quotes containing the word buried:
“In our man-of-war world, Life comes in at one gangway and Death goes overboard at the other. Under the man-of-war scourge, curses mix with tears; and the sigh and the sob furnish the bass to the shrill octave of those who laugh to drown buried griefs of their own.”
—Herman Melville (18191891)
“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 (18991979)
“The truth is, there is money buried everywhere, and you have only to go to work to find it.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
