Killed

Famous quotes containing the word killed:

    I have killed all the good things,
    but they are too stubborn for me.
    They hang on.

    Planted deeper than roots,
    This chiselled, flung-up faith
    Runs and leaps against the sky,
    A prayer killed into stone....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Squats on a toad-stool under a tree
    A bodiless childfull of life in the gloom,
    Crying with frog voice, “What shall I be?
    Poor unborn ghost, for my mother killed me
    Scarcely alive in her wicked womb.
    Thomas Lovell Beddoes (1803–1849)
