Quotes Tagged 鈥淏iography鈥�

Michael G. Kramer
“The Black Prince is entombed at Canterbury Cathedral. His effigy reads: 鈥淪uch as thou art, sometimes was I, Such as I am, such thou shalt be, I thought little on hour of death, So long as I enjoyed breath, On earth I had great riches, Land, houses, great treasure, Horses money and gold, But now a wretched captive am I, Deep in the ground, lo I lie, My beauty great, is all quite gone, My flesh is wasted to the bone.”
― Michael G. Kramer, Isabella Warrior Queen

Betty Mahmoody
“S茅 que mi familia es as铆 pero este silencio me pesa. Tengo la impresi贸n de tener millones de cosas que decir que, en el fondo, no interesan a nadie. Me viene a la memoria lo que dec铆an los supervivientes de los campos de la 煤ltima guerra al volver a su hogar: las pesadillas no se cuentan. Los dem谩s no imaginan este g茅nero de pesadillas. Se instala, entre ellos y nosotras, una especie de statu quo que parece decir: 鈥楨st谩s aqu铆, se acab贸, no hablemos m谩s de ello.”
