Sunday August

Famous quotes containing the words sunday and/or august:

    that Sunday in July
    when we were young and did not look
    into the abyss,
    that God spot.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Sorrow has the fortunate peculiarity that it preys upon itself. It dies of starvation. Since it is essentially an interruption of habits, it can be replaced by new habits. Constituting, as it does, a void, it is soon filled up by a real “horror vacui.”
    —J. August Strindberg (1849–1912)
