Famous quotes containing the word death:

    ... probably all of the women in this book are working to make part of the same quilt to keep us from freezing to death in a world that grows harsher and bleaker—where male is the norm and the ideal human being is hard, violent and cold: a macho rock. Every woman who makes of her living something strong and good is sharing bread with us.
    Marge Piercy (b. 1936)

    Life folded Death; Death trellised Life; the grim god wived with youthful Life, and begat him curly-headed glories.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    Do thou but close our hands with holy words,
    Then love-devouring death do what he dare,
    It is enough I may but call her mine.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
