Important Word

Famous quotes containing the words important and/or word:

    As one who overtaken by the end
    Gives up his errand, and lets death descend
    Upon him where he is, with nothing done
    To evil, no important triumph won,
    More than if life had never been begun.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    The symmetrical piles of white bodies,
    the round white breast-shapes of the heaps,
    the smell of the smoke, the dogs the wires the
    rope the hunger. It had happened to others.
    There was a word for us. I was: a Jew.
    Sharon Olds (b. 1942)
