Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “The raven is my talisman.... Death is my talisman, Mr. Chapman. The one indestructible force. The one certain thing in an uncertain universe. Death.”
    —David Boehm, and Louis Friedlander. Dr. Richard Vollin (Bela Lugosi)

    “We like the chase better than the quarry.... And those who philosophize on the matter, and who think men unreasonable for spending a whole day in chasing a hare which they would not have bought, scarce know our nature. The hare in itself would not screen us from the sight of death and calamities; but the chase, which turns away our attention from these, does screen us.”
    —Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    “Yea, worse than death: death parts both woe and joy:
    From joy I part, still living in annoy.”
    —Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)
