Famous quotes containing the word death:

    I’m afraid of needles.
    I’m tired of rubber sheets and tubes.
    I’m tired of faces that I don’t know
    and now I think that death is starting.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    I just look at death as not a threat. It’s inevitable, and I have an assurance of eternal life.
    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)

    Since the death instinct exists in the heart of everything that lives, since we suffer from trying to repress it, since everything that lives longs for rest, let us unfasten the ties that bind us to life, let us cultivate our death wish, let us develop it, water it like a plant, let it grow unhindered. Suffering and fear are born from the repression of the death wish.
    Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
