Famous quotes containing the word death:

    Those near death speak with sincere hearts.
    —Chinese proverb.

    Confucian Analects.

    It is better to sit down than to stand, it is better to lie down than to sit, but death is the best of all.
    Indian proverb, quoted in Sébastien-roch Nicolas de Chamfort, Maxims and Considerations, vol. 1, no. 155 (1796, trans. 1926)

    Within the hollow crown
    That rounds the mortal temples of a king
    Keeps Death his court, and there the antic sits,
    Scoffing his state and mocking at his pomp,
    Allowing him a breath, a little scene,
    To monarchize, be feared, and kill with looks.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
