Dies

Famous quotes containing the word dies:

    To save the theatre, the theatre must be destroyed, the actors and actresses must all die of the plague. They poison the air, they make art impossible. It is not drama that they play, but pieces for the theatre. We should return to the Greeks, play in the open air: the drama dies of stalls and boxes and evening dress, and people who come to digest their dinner.
    Eleonora Duse (1858–1924)

    I sweep. One gyrates like a top and falls
    And stunned, stone blind, and deaf
    Buzzes its frightful F
    And dies between three cannibals.
    Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)

    Memories are hunting horns
    Whose sound dies on the wind.
    Guillaume Apollinaire (1880–1918)
