Famous quotes containing the word death:
“half-way up the hill, I see the Past
Lying beneath me with its sounds and sights,
A city in the twilight dim and vast,
With smoking roofs, soft bells, and gleaming lights,
And hear above me on the autumnal blast
The cataract of Death far thundering from the heights.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (18091882)
“It is easy to face Death and Fate, and the things that sound so dreadful. It is on my muddles that I look back with horroron the things that I might have avoided.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
“When death comes too near, comedy and tragedy fall silent.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
