Famous quotes containing the words thomas and/or graves:

    Morning smack of the spade that wakes up sleep,
    Shakes a desolate boy who slits his throat
    In the dark of the coffin and sheds dry leaves,
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    Our graves that hide us from the searching sun
    Are like drawn curtains when the play is done.
    Thus march we, playing, to our latest rest,
    Only, we die in earnest—that’s no jest.
    Sir Walter Raleigh (1552?–1618)
