Famous quotes containing the words red and/or death:

    Red river, red river,
    Slow flow heat is silence
    No will is still as a river
    Still.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    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)
