Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “Hunger shall make thy modest zone
    And cheat fond death of all but bone—”
    —Cecil Day Lewis (1904–1972)

    “Do but consider this small dust, here running in the glass,
    By atoms moved.
    Could you believe that this the body was
    Of one that loved?
    And in his mistress’ flame playing like a fly,
    Turned to cinders by her eye?
    Yes, and in death as life unblest,
    To have’t expressed,
    Even ashes of lovers find no rest.”
    —Ben Jonson (1572–1637)

    “I could lie down like a tired child,
    And weep away the life of care
    Which I have borne and yet must bear,
    Till death like sleep might steal on me,”
    —Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
