Famous quotes containing the words night and/or died:
“O grim-looked night, O night with hue so black,
O night which ever art when day is not!”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Cotton Mather died when I was a boy. The books
He read, all day, all night and all the nights,
Had got him nowhere. There was always the doubt,
That made him preach the louder, long for a church
In which his voice would roll its cadences,
After the sermon, to quiet that mouse in the wall.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
