Famous quotes containing the word death:
“Almost everybody in the neighborhood had troubles, frankly localized and specified; but only the chosen had complications. To have them was in itself a distinction, though it was also, in most cases, a death warrant. People struggled on for years with troubles, but they almost always succumbed to complications.”
—Edith Wharton (18621937)
“He should be as vigorous as a sugar maple, with sap enough to maintain his own verdure,... and not like a vine, which being cut in the spring bears no fruit, but bleeds to death in the endeavor to heal its wounds.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“In the death of my son, now more than two years ago, I seem to have lost a beautiful estate,no more. I cannot get it nearer to me.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
