Longer Sing

Famous quotes containing the words longer and/or sing:

    The sun was rising at six,
    No longer a battered panache above snow. . . .
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    We sing the funeral, as goes the custom, with the hymn of the Dead. But Manuel, he chose a hymn for the living: the song of the coumbite, the song of the earth, of the water, the plants, of fellowship between peasants because he wanted, as I now understand it, that his death for you be the renewal of life.
    Jacques Roumain (1907–1945)
