Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “It is not love you will find:
    You have no limbs
    Crying for stillness, you have no mind
    Trembling with seraphim,
    You have no death to come.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “When Gabriel’s trumpet ends all life’s delay,
    Will crash the beams of firmamental woe:
    Not nature will sustain the even crime
    Of death, though death sustains all nature, so.”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    “I know death hath ten thousand several doors
    For men to take their exits.”
    —John Webster (1580–1625)
