Famous quotes containing the words merrill and/or lynch:

    the sheets and towels of a life we were going to share,
    The milk-stiff bibs, the shroud, each rag to be ever
    Trampled or soiled, bled on or groped for blindly,
    Came swooning out of an enormous willow hamper
    Onto moon-marbly boards.
    —James Merrill (b. 1926)

    A physician can sometimes parry the scythe of death, but has no power over the sand in the hourglass.
    —Hester Lynch Piozzi (1741–1821)
