Famous quotes containing the word death:
“...there is death in the pot!”
—Bible: Hebrew, 2 Kings 4:40.
“Once ones up against it, the precise manner of ones death has obviously small importance.”
—Albert Camus (19131960)
“The death of a dear friend, wife, brother, lover, which seemed nothing but privation, somewhat later assumes the aspect of a guide or genius; for it commonly operates revolutions in our way of life, terminates an epoch of infancy or of youth which was waiting to be closed, breaks up a wonted occupation, or a household, or style of living, and allows the formation of new ones more friendly to the growth of character.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
