Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “hung up like a pig on exhibit,
    the delicate wrists,
    the beard drooling blood and vinegar;
    hooked to your own weight,
    jolting toward death under your nameplate.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “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)
