Stealing Heaven

Famous quotes containing the words stealing and/or heaven:

    In the twentieth century, death terrifies men less than the absence of real life. All these dead, mechanized, specialized actions, stealing a little bit of life a thousand times a day until the mind and body are exhausted, until that death which is not the end of life but the final saturation with absence.
    Raoul Vaneigem (b. 1934)

    A saint about to fall,
    The stained flats of heaven hit and razed
    To the kissed kite hems of his shawl....
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
