Famous quotes containing the word death:

    This morning men deliver wounds and death.
    They will deliver death and wounds tomorrow.
    And I doubt all. You. Or a violet.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    No man may him hide
    From Death hollow-eyed,
    John Skelton (1460?–1529)

    Some say that gleams of a remoter world
    Visit the soul in sleep,—that death is slumber,
    And that its shapes the busy thoughts outnumber
    Of those who wake and live.—
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
