Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “They can rule the world while they can persuade us
    our pain belongs in some order.
    Is death by famine worse than death by suicide,
    than a life of famine and suicide ... ?”
    —Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    “I knew the poor,
    I knew the hideous death they die,
    when famine lays its bleak hand on the door;
    I knew the rich,
    sated with merriment,
    who yet are sad.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
