Famous quotes containing the words final, years and/or death:

    I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched seabeams glitter in the dark near the Tennhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time like tears in rain. Time to die.
    David Webb Peoples, U.S. screenwriter, and Ridley Scott. Roy Batty, Blade Runner, final words before dying—as an android he had a built-in life span that expired (1982)

    Frankly, despite my horror of the press, I’d love to rise from the grave every ten years or so and go buy a few newspapers.
    Luis Buñuel (1900–1983)

    Death destroys a man, but the idea of death saves him.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)
