“I have lost friends, some by death… others by sheer inability to cross the street.”

“Things have dropped from me. I have outlived certain desires; I have lost friends, some by death… others through sheer inability to cross the street.”

“Those who have crossed
With direct eyes, to death's other Kingdom
Remember us — if at all — not as lost
Violent souls, but only
As the hollow men
The stuffed men.”

“I crossed the street to walk in the sunshine.”

“Those who have crossed
With direct eyes, to death's other Kingdom
Remember us”

“There are children playing in the streets who could solve some of my top problems in physics, because they have modes of sensory perception that I lost long ago.”

“Is every death on the cross associated with paying the sins of others?”

“I desire so to conduct the affairs of this administration that if at the end, when I come to lay down the reins of power, I have lost every other friend on earth, I shall at least have one friend left, and that friend shall be down inside of me.”

“Life into death—life’s other shape, no rupture, only crossing.”

“Some people have a large circle of friends while others have only friends that they like.”
