Famous quotes containing the word death:

    Now if thou wouldst, when all have given him over,
    From death to life thou mightst him yet recover.
    Michael Drayton (1563–1631)

    A rat crept softly through the vegetation
    Dragging its slimy belly on the bank
    While I was fishing in the dull canal
    On a winter evening round behind the gashouse
    Musing upon the king my brother’s wreck
    And on the king my father’s death before him.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
