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)

    for it is not so much to know the self
    as to know it as it is known
    by galaxy and cedar cone,
    as if birth had never found it

    and death could never end it:
    Archie Randolph Ammons (b. 1926)

    I want Death to find me planting my cabbages, neither worrying about it nor the unfinished gardening.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
