Died

Famous quotes containing the word died:

“You’ve got a job to do. You’ve gotta sing on Smith.... You’ve gotta finish the job for Tolly! Or he died for nothing!”
—Samuel Fuller (b. 1911)

“There is a distinction to be drawn between true collectors and accumulators. Collectors are discriminating; accumulators act at random. The Collyer brothers, who died among the tons of newspapers and trash with which they filled every cubic foot of their house so that they could scarcely move, were a classic example of accumulators, but there are many of us whose houses are filled with all manner of things that we “can’t bear to throw away.””
—Russell Lynes (1910–1991)

“Each of us like you
has died once,
each of us like you
stands apart, like you
fit to be worshipped.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
