“Nobody dies from the lack of sex. It's lack of love we die from.”
Margaret Atwood (1939) Canadian writer
Wallace Stevens (1879–1955) American poet
Peter Quince at the Clavier (1915)
Context: Beauty is momentary in the mind —
The fitful tracing of a portal;
But in the flesh it is immortal.
The body dies; the body's beauty lives.
So evenings die, in their green going,
A wave, interminably flowing.
So gardens die, their meek breath scenting
The cowl of winter, done repenting.
So maidens die, to the auroral
Celebration of a maiden's choral.
Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892–1950) American poet
"Childhood Is the Kingdom Where Nobody Dies," lines 1-4, from Wine from These Grapes (1934)
