Coming

Famous quotes containing the word coming:

    A feme may come, leaf-green,
    Whose coming may give revel
    Beyond revelries of sleep,
    Yes, and the blackbird spread its tail,
    So that the sun may speckle,
    While it creaks hail.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    A funeral is not death, any more than baptism is birth or marriage union. All three are the clumsy devices, coming now too late, now too early, by which Society would register the quick motions of man.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    We can’t do anything.... They just die and die and die, and they keep coming and coming and coming.
    Florence Parent, U.S. physician. New York Times, p. 1A (July 22, 1994)
