Famous quotes containing the word death:

    I cannot think this creature died
    By storm or fish or sea-fowl harmed
    Walking the sea so heavily armed;
    Or does it make for death to be
    Oneself a living armoury?
    Andrew Young (1885–1971)

    If thou art rich, thou’rt poor,
    For like an ass, whose back with ingots bows,
    Thou bear’st thy heavy riches but a journey,
    And death unloads thee.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    For the wretched one night is like a thousand; for someone faring well death is just one more night.
    Sophocles (497–406/5 B.C.)
