Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “There is something antique, even, in his style of treating his subject, reminding us that Heroes and Demi-gods, Fates and Furies, still exist; the common man is nothing to him, but after death the hero is apotheosized and has a place in heaven, as in the religion of the Greeks.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Poor fellow never joyed since the price of oats rose, it was
    the death of him.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “How many wives have been forced by the death of well-intentioned but too protective husbands to face reality late in life, bewildered and frightened because they were strangers to it!”
    —Hortense Odlum (1892–?)
