Stays

Famous quotes containing the word stays:

“Home is so sad. It stays as it was left,
Shaped to the comfort of the last to go
As if to win them back.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

“Deep down, no one really believes they have a right to live. But this death sentence generally stays cosily tucked away, hidden beneath the difficulty of living. If that difficulty is removed from time to time, death is suddenly there, unintelligibly.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

“Separation’s fire
can be borne
when there’s a knot of hope,
but Mother,
when my love leaves home
and stays in the same village,
it’s far worse than death.”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
