Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “Consider his life which was valueless
    In terms of employment, hotel ledgers, news files.
    Consider. One bullet in ten thousand kills a man.
    Ask. Was so much expenditure justified
    On the death of one so young and so silly
    Lying under the olive tree, O world, O death?”
    —Stephen Spender (1909–1995)

    “According to legend, Dr. Sappington purchased his coffin several years before his death and kept it under his bed, with apples and nuts in it for his visiting grandchildren.”
    —Administration in the State of Miss, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
