Famous quotes containing the words died and/or february:

    “Cotton Mather died when I was a boy. The books
    He read, all day, all night and all the nights,
    Had got him nowhere. There was always the doubt,
    That made him preach the louder, long for a church
    In which his voice would roll its cadences,
    After the sermon, to quiet that mouse in the wall.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “In my experience, if you have to keep the lavatory door shut by extending your left leg, it’s modern architecture.”
    —Nancy Banks-Smith, British columnist. Guardian (London, February 20, 1979)
