Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “I knew the poor,
    I knew the hideous death they die,
    when famine lays its bleak hand on the door;
    I knew the rich,
    sated with merriment,
    who yet are sad.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “Faithfulness to the past can be a kind of death above ground. Writing of the past is a resurrection; the past then lives in your words and you are free.”
    —Jessamyn West (1902–1984)

    “When death comes too near, comedy and tragedy fall silent.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
