Famous quotes containing the word death:
“Ive been cursed for delving into the mysteries of life. Perhaps death is sacred, and Ive profaned it. Oh, what a wonderful vision it was. I dreamed of being the first to give to the world the secret that God is so jealous of, the formula for life. Think of the power, to create a man. And I did, I did it, I created a man. And who knows, in time I could have trained him to do my will. I could have bred a race, I might even have found the secret of eternal life.”
—William Hurlbut (1883?)
“A man that apprehends death no more dreadfully but as a drunken sleep, careless, reckless, and fearless of whats past, present, or to come; insensible of mortality, and desperately mortal.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“Death, the most dreaded of all evils, is therefore of no concern to us; for while we exist death is not present, and when death is present we no longer exist.”
—Epicurus (c. 341271 B.C.)
