Coming

Famous quotes containing the word coming:

“The distance that the dead have gone
Does not at first appear—
Their coming back seems possible
For many an ardent year.”

“How strange a vehicle it is, coming down unchanged from times of old romance, and so characteristically black, the way no other thing is black except a coffin—a vehicle evoking lawless adventures in the plashing stillness of night, and still more strongly evoking death itself, the bier, the dark obsequies, the last silent journey!”
—Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
