Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “If thee thy brittle beauty so deceives,
    Know then the thing that swells thee is thy bane;
    For the same beauty doth, in bloody leaves.
    The sentence of thy early death contain.”
    —Sir Richard Fanshawe (1608–1666)

    “Because men really respect only that which was founded of old and has developed slowly, he who wants to live on after his death must take care not only of his posterity but even more of his past.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
