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)

    “And of the other things death is a new office building filled with modern furniture,
    A wise thing, but which has no purpose for us.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “Let the same mind be in you that was in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not regard equality with God as something to be exploited, but emptied himself, taking the form of a slave, being born in human likeness. And being found in human form, he humbled himself and became obedient to the point of death M even death on a cross.”
    —Bible: New Testament, Philippians 2:5-8.
