Died Young

Famous quotes containing the words died and/or young:

    Each of us like you
    has died once,
    each of us like you
    stands apart, like you
    fit to be worshipped.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    Young children make only the simple assumption: “This is life—you go along....” He stands ready to go along with whatever adults seem to want. He stands poised, trying to figure out what they want. The young child is almost at the mercy of adults—it is so important to him to please.
    James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)
