| Quotes |
There are things that wait for us, patiently, in the dark corridors of our lives. We think we have moved on, put them out of mind, left them to desiccate and shrivel and blow away; but we are wrong.
-- Neil Gaiman, "Introduction," Trigger Warning: Short Fictions and Disturbances, 2015 |
| Origin |
| Desiccate stems from the Latin word siccus meaning "dry." It entered English in the mid-1500s. |
