Famous quotes containing the word death:

    I thought of all that worked dark pits
    Of war, and died
    Digging the rock where Death reputes
    Peace lies indeed.
    Wilfred Owen (1893–1918)

    I used to think of death ... like I suppose soldiers think of it: it was a possible thing that I could well avoid by my skill.

    Oh Death he is a little man,
    And he goes from do’ to do’ ...
