Malcolm Lowry Quotes:

Ocupation: Poet

Life: July 28, 1909 - June 26, 1957

Birthday: July 28

Death: June 26

My heart has the taste of ashes, and my throat is tight and weary with weeping. What is a lost soul? It is one that has turned from its true path and is groping in the darkness of remembered ways—

- Malcolm Lowry
