Famous quotes containing the words donne and/or wrote:
“Who sees God’s face, that is self life, must die;
What a death were it then to see God die!
It made his own lieutenant, Nature, shrink;
It made his footstool crack, and the sun wink.”
—John Donne (1572–1631)
“This is my letter to the world,
That never wrote to me—
The simple news that Nature told,”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
