Famous quotes containing the words died and/or wolfe:

    Just before she died she asked, “What is the answer?” No answer came. She laughed and said, “In that case, what is the question?” Then she died.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    It was a cruel city, but it was a lovely one, a savage city, yet it had such tenderness, a bitter, harsh, and violent catacomb of stone and steel and tunneled rock, slashed savagely with light, and roaring, fighting a constant ceaseless warfare of men and of machinery; and yet it was so sweetly and so delicately pulsed, as full of warmth, of passion, and of love, as it was full of hate.
    —Thomas Wolfe (1900–1938)
