Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “Some say that gleams of a remoter world
    Visit the soul in sleep,—that death is slumber,
    And that its shapes the busy thoughts outnumber
    Of those who wake and live.—”
    —Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    “Within the hollow crown
    That rounds the mortal temples of a king
    Keeps Death his court, and there the antic sits,
    Scoffing his state and mocking at his pomp,
    Allowing him a breath, a little scene,
    To monarchize, be feared, and kill with looks.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “The death of Satan was a tragedy
    For the imagination.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
