Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “The One remains, the many change and pass;
    Heaven’s light forever shines, Earth’s shadows fly;
    Life, like a dome of many-coloured glass,
    Stains the white radiance of Eternity,
    Until Death tramples it to fragments.”
    —Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    “Dreams pursue death as winds a flying fire,
    Our dreams pursue our dead and do not find.”
    —A.C. (Algernon Charles)

    “All societies on the verge of death are masculine. A society can survive with only one man; no society will survive a shortage of women.”
    —Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
