Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “Why wait for Death to mow?
    why wait for Death to sow
    us in the ground?”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “It is conceivable at least that a late generation, such as we presumably are, has particular need of the sketch, in order not to be strangled to death by inherited conceptions which preclude new births.... The sketch has direction, but no ending; the sketch as reflection of a view of life that is no longer conclusive, or is not yet conclusive.”
    —Max Frisch (1911–1991)

    “One short sleep past, we wake eternally,
    And Death shall be no more; Death, thou shalt die!”
    —John Donne (c. 1572–1631)
