Norman Maurer - Death

Famous quotes containing the word death:

“Two graves must hide thine and my corse;
If one might, death were no divorce.”
—John Donne (1572–1631)

“Human life consists in mutual service. No grief, pain, misfortune, or “broken heart,” is excuse for cutting off one’s life while any power of service remains. But when all usefulness is over, when one is assured of an unavoidable and imminent death, it is the simplest of human rights to choose a quick and easy death in place of a slow and horrible one.”
—Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860–1935)
