Memory Loss

Famous quotes containing the words memory and/or loss:

    I hid my love when young till I
    Couldn’t bear the buzzing of a fly;
    I hid my life to my despite
    Till I could not bear to look at light:
    I dare not gaze upon her face
    But left her memory in each place;
    Where’er I saw a wild flower lie
    I kissed and bade my love good-bye.
    John Clare (1793–1864)

    Somebody who should have been born
    is gone.

    Yes, woman, such logic will lead
    to loss without death. Or say what you meant,
    you coward . . . this baby that I bleed.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
