Elmer Bernstein - Death

Famous quotes containing the word death:

“... the heart monitor,
the death cricket bleeping.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

“for it is not so much to know the self
as to know it as it is known
by galaxy and cedar cone,
as if birth had never found it

and death could never end it:”

“Do thou but close our hands with holy words,
Then love-devouring death do what he dare,
It is enough I may but call her mine.”
