Tomb Sweeping Day

Famous quotes containing the words tomb, sweeping and/or day:

    Laid out for death, let thy last kindness be
    With leaves and moss-work for to cover me:
    And while the wood-nymphs my cold corpse inter,
    Sing thou my dirge, sweet-warbling chorister!
    For epitaph, in foliage, next write this:
    Here, here the tomb of Robin Herrick is.
    Robert Herrick (1591–1674)

    The Sweeping up the Heart
    And putting Love away
    We shall not want to use again
    Until Eternity.
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    The thing about performance, even if it’s only an illusion, is that it is a celebration of the fact that we do contain within ourselves infinite possibilities.
    —Daniel Day Lewis (b. 1957)
