Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “You’re very beautiful. So beautiful I’m going to make you immortal. Like Kharis, you will live forever. What I can do for you I can also do for myself. Neither time nor death can touch us. You and I together for eternity here in the temple of Karnak. You shall be my high priestess.”
    —Griffin Jay, Maxwell Shane (1905–1983)

    “Oh! death will find me long before I tire
    Of watching you.”
    —Rupert Brooke (1887–1915)

    “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)
