Famous quotes containing the words died and/or april:
“Cotton Mather died when I was a boy. The books
He read, all day, all night and all the nights,
Had got him nowhere. There was always the doubt,
That made him preach the louder, long for a church
In which his voice would roll its cadences,
After the sermon, to quiet that mouse in the wall.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“Shining through tears, like April suns in showers,
That labour to o’ercome the cloud that loads ‘em.”
—Thomas Otway (1652–1685)
