Famous quotes containing the word death:

    I do not find
    The Hanged Man. Fear death by water.
    I see crowds of people, walking round in a ring.
    Thank you.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    I mourn the safe and motherly old middle-class queen, who held the nation warm under the fold of her big, hideous Scotch-plaid shawl and whose duration had been so extraordinarily convenient and beneficent. I felt her death much more than I should have expected; she was a sustaining symbol—and the wild waters are upon us now.
    Henry James (1843–1916)

    An “unemployed” existence is a worse negation of life than death itself.
    José Ortega Y Gasset (1883–1955)
