Famous quotes containing the word death:
“Every American, to the last man, lays claim to a “sense” of humor and guards it as his most significant spiritual trait, yet rejects humor as a contaminating element wherever found.

—Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“This morning men deliver wounds and death.
They will deliver death and wounds tomorrow.
