Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “All good biography, as all good fiction, comes down to the study of original sin, of our inherent disposition to choose death when we ought to choose life.”
    —Rebecca West (1892–1983)

    “It is conceivable at least that a late generation, such as we presumably are, has particular need of the sketch, in order not to be strangled to death by inherited conceptions which preclude new births.... The sketch has direction, but no ending; the sketch as reflection of a view of life that is no longer conclusive, or is not yet conclusive.”
    —Max Frisch (1911–1991)

    “Immortal mortals, mortal immortals, one living the others’ death and dying the others’ life.”
    —Heraclitus (c. 535–475 B.C.)
