Famous quotes containing the word death:

    You mustn’t be afraid of death. When this ship sailed, death sailed on her.
    —Charles Larkworthy. Denison Clift. Anton Lorenzen (Bela Lugosi)

    Life is in the mouth; death is in the mouth.
    Hawaiian saying no. 60, ‘lelo No’Eau, collected, translated, and annotated by Mary Kawena Pukui, Bishop Museum Press, Hawaii (1983)

    There are confessable agonies, sufferings of which one can positively be proud. Of bereavement, of parting, of the sense of sin and the fear of death the poets have eloquently spoken. They command the world’s sympathy. But there are also discreditable anguishes, no less excruciating than the others, but of which the sufferer dare not, cannot speak. The anguish of thwarted desire, for example.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
