Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “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)

    “It is easy to face Death and Fate, and the things that sound so dreadful. It is on my muddles that I look back with horror—on the things that I might have avoided.”
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    “And so, standing before the aforesaid officiator, the two swore that at every other time of their lives till death took them, they would assuredly believe, feel, and desire precisely as they had believed, felt, and desired during the few preceding weeks. What was as remarkable as the undertaking itself was the fact that nobody seemed at all surprised at what they swore.”
    —Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
