Famous quotes containing the words final and/or months:

    “I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched seabeams glitter in the dark near the Tennhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time like tears in rain. Time to die.”
    —David Webb Peoples, U.S. screenwriter, and Ridley Scott. Roy Batty, Blade Runner, final words before dying—as an android he had a built-in life span that expired (1982)

    “Sixteen. Her breasts
    round, round, and
    dark-nippled
    who now these two months long
    is bones and tatters of flesh in earth.”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
