Famous quotes containing the word death:
“And so, standing before the aforesaid officiator, the two swore that at every other time of their lives till death took them, they would assuredly believe, feel, and desire precisely as they had believed, felt, and desired during the few preceding weeks.

—Joseph De Maistre (1753–1821)
“Only death rescues us from dying.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
