Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “I’m afraid of needles.
    I’m tired of rubber sheets and tubes.
    I’m tired of faces that I don’t know
    and now I think that death is starting.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “I don’t know much about death and the sorriest lesson I’ve learned is that words, my most trusted guardians against chaos, offer small comfort in the face of anyone’s dying.”
    —Alison Hawthorne Deming (b. 1946)

    “And Death fell with me, like a deepening moan.
    And He, picking a manner of worm, which half had hid
    Its bruises in the earth, but crawled no further,
    Showed me its feet, the feet of many men,
    And the fresh-severed head of it, my head.”
    —Wilfred Owen (1893–1918)
