Famous quotes containing the word death:

    You know, if this is Venus, or some other strange planet, we’re liable to run into some high-domed characters with green blood in their veins who’ll blast at us with their atomic death rayguns, and there we’ll be with these—these poor old-fashioned shootin’ irons.
    Edward L. Bernds (b. 1911)

    Yea, worse than death: death parts both woe and joy:
    From joy I part, still living in annoy.
    Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)

    If I can, I shall keep my death from saying anything that my life has not already said.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
