Famous quotes containing the words mere and/or oblivion:

    Men there are, who having quite done with the world, all its merely worldly contents are become so far indifferent, that they care little of what mere worldly imprudence they may be guilty.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    The others died, the luck of it blurting through them.
    I could not, I was a silly broken umbrella
    and oblivion would not kiss me. For three days it
    was thus.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
