Total War Dead

Famous quotes containing the words total, war and/or dead:

    “only total expression

    expresses hiding: I’ll have to say everything
    to take on the roundness and withdrawal of the deep dark:
    less than total is a bucketful of radiant toys.”
    —Archie Randolph Ammons (b. 1926)

    “Every country we conquer feeds us. And these are just a few of the good things we’ll have when this war is over.... Slaves working for us everywhere while we sit back with a fork in our hands and a whip on our knees.”
    —Curtis Siodmak (1902–1988)

    “Strong to break dead things,
    the young tree, drained of sap,
    the old tree, ready to drop,
    to lift from the rotting bed
    of leaves, the old
    crumbling pine tree stock.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
