Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “When death comes too near, comedy and tragedy fall silent.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “A man that apprehends death no more dreadfully but as a drunken sleep, careless, reckless, and fearless of what’s past, present, or to come; insensible of mortality, and desperately mortal.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Yet always when I look death in the face,
    When I clamber to the heights of sleep,
    Or when I grow excited with wine,
    Suddenly I meet your face.”
