Died

Famous quotes containing the word died:

“Honour came to me,
though I sought it not;
I died at mid-day, sleeping;
They did not see the reach of purple-wing
that lifted me out of the little room.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

“When I died last, and, dear, I die
As often as from thee I go
Though it be but an hour ago,
And lovers’ hours be full eternity.”
—John Donne (c. 1572–1631)

“The others “acted” a role; I was the role. She who was Mary Garden died that it might live. That was my genius ... and my sacrifice. It drained off so much of me that by comparison my private life was empty. I could not give myself completely twice.”
—Mary Garden (1874–1967)
