Famous quotes containing the words burn and/or bags:
“The next time the novelist rings the bell I will not stir though the meeting-house burn down.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Some dead undid their bushy jaws,
And bags of blood let out their flies;
He had by heart the Christ-cross-row of death.
Sleep navigates the tides of time;
The dry Sargasso of the tomb
Gives up its dead to such a working sea....”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
