Famous quotes containing the word death:

—Henry Miller (1891–1980)
“All societies on the verge of death are masculine. A society can survive with only one man; no society will survive a shortage of women.”

“I’m beginning to believe that Killer Illiteracy ought to rank near heart disease and cancer as one of the leading causes of death among Americans. What you don’t know can indeed hurt you, and so those who can neither read nor write lead miserable lives, like Richard Wright’s character, Bigger Thomas, born dead with no past or future.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
