Died

Famous quotes containing the word died:

“Honour came to me,
though I sought it not;
I died at mid-day, sleeping;
They did not see the reach of purple-wing
that lifted me out of the little room.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

Did what he had to do,
He died upon the gallows
But that is nothing new.”
