Famous quotes containing the word death:

    Monarchs ought to put to death the authors and instigators of war, as their sworn enemies and as dangers to their states.
    Elizabeth I (1533–1603)

    In the whole vast dome of living nature there reigns an open violence, a kind of prescriptive fury which arms all the creatures to their common doom: as soon as you leave the inanimate kingdom you find the decree of violent death inscribed on the very frontiers of life.
    Joseph De Maistre (1753–1821)
