Grave Clothes

Famous quotes containing the words grave and/or clothes:

    I am of course confident that I will fulfil my tasks as a writer in all circumstances—from my grave even more successfully and more irrefutably than in my lifetime. No one can bar the road to truth, and to advance its cause I am prepared to accept even death. But may it be that repeated lessons will finally teach us not to stop the writer’s pen during his lifetime? At no time has this ennobled our history.
    Alexander Solzhenitsyn (b. 1918)

    Huw: Bron, would you have me to live in this house, and have my wages?
    Bronwen: Your home is with your mother.
    Huw: It was she who sent me.
    Bronwen: From pity.
    Huw: No, from sense. If you put clothes on night and morning, let them be my clothes.
    Bronwen: Good old man.
    Philip Dunne (1908–1992)
