Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “Because men really respect only that which was founded of old and has developed slowly, he who wants to live on after his death must take care not only of his posterity but even more of his past.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “When Gabriel’s trumpet ends all life’s delay,
    Will crash the beams of firmamental woe:
    Not nature will sustain the even crime
    Of death, though death sustains all nature, so.”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)
