Famous quotes containing the words famous and/or deaths:

    Up through the lubber crust of Wales
    I rocketed to astonish
    The flashing needle rock of squatters,
    The criers of Shabby and Shorten,
    The famous stitch droppers.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    As deaths have accumulated I have begun to think of life and death as a set of balance scales. When one is young, the scale is heavily tipped toward the living. With the first death, the first consciousness of death, the counter scale begins to fall. Death by death, the scales shift weight until what was unthinkable becomes merely a matter of gravity and the fall into death becomes an easy step.
    Alison Hawthorne Deming (b. 1946)
