Famous quotes containing the word deaths:

    On almost the incendiary eve
    Of deaths and entrances ...

    they waste their deaths on us.

    What we do is not beautiful
    hurts no one makes no one desperate
    we do not break the panes of safety glass
    stretching between people on the street
    and the deaths they hire.
    Marge Piercy (b. 1936)
