Famous quotes containing the words mere and/or oblivion:
“Although a man may lose a sense of his own importance when he is a mere unit among a busy throng, all utterly regardless of him, it by no means follows that he can dispossess himself, with equal facility, of a very strong sense of the importance and magnitude of his cares.”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
“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)
