Famous quotes containing the word death:

    My death from the wrists,
    two name tags,
    blood worn like a corsage
    to bloom
    one on the left and one on the right....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Yet the wound, O see the wound
    This petrified heart has taken,
    Because, created deathless,
    Nothing but death remained
    To scatter magnificence....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    It is easy to face Death and Fate, and the things that sound so dreadful. It is on my muddles that I look back with horror—on the things that I might have avoided.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)
