Famous quotes containing the word death:

    I am tired with my own life and the lives of those after me,
    I am dying in my own death and the deaths of those after me.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    There is a rhythm to the ending of a marriage just like the rhythm of a courtship—only backward. You try to start again but get into blaming over and over. Finally you are both worn out, exhausted, hopeless. Then lawyers are called in to pick clean the corpses. The death has occurred much earlier.
    Erica Jong (b. 1942)

    Yea, worse than death: death parts both woe and joy:
    From joy I part, still living in annoy.
    Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)
