Famous quotes containing the word death:
“Life without a friend is death without a witness.”
—Spanish proverb.
“I’ve been cursed for delving into the mysteries of life. Perhaps death is sacred, and I’ve 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–?)
“The breath of an aristocrat is the death rattle of freedom.”
—Georg Büchner (1813–1837)
