Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “and so this tree—
    Oh, that such our death may be!—
    Died in sleep, and felt no pain,
    To live in happier form again:
    From which, beneath Heaven’s fairest star,
    The artist wrought this loved guitar;”
    —Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    “The death of Irving, which at any other time would have attracted universal attention, having occurred while these things were transpiring, went almost unobserved. I shall have to read of it in the biography of authors.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Life without a friend is death without a witness.”
