Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “Old age is a tyrant that forbids us upon pain of death all the pleasures of youth.”
    —François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    “Go; and if that word have not quite killed thee,
    Ease me with death by bidding me got too.
    Oh, if it have, let my word work on me,
    And a just office on a murderer do.
    Except it be too late to kill me so,
    Being double dead: going, and bidding go.”
    —John Donne (1572–1631)

    Regards death as a mere border to an improving picture.”
