Death

In his later life, Newton lived in both Monte Carlo and Los Angeles, California. He was in an accident on 23 January 2004, when his car sped out of control and hit a wall in the driveway of the Chateau Marmont which had for several years served as his residence in Southern California. He died at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. His ashes are buried next to Marlene Dietrich at the Städtischer Friedhof III in Berlin.

Famous quotes containing the word death:

    And death i think is no parenthesis
    —E.E. (Edward Estlin)

    O Lord, methought what pain it was to drown,
    What dreadful noise of waters in my ears!
    What sights of ugly death within my eyes!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Solomon! where is thy throne? It is gone in the wind.
    Babylon! where is thy might? It is gone in the wind.
    Happy in death are they only whose hearts have consigned
    All Earth’s affections and longings and cares to the wind.
    James Clarence Mangan (1803–1849)
