Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “Why does man freeze to death trying to reach the North Pole? Why does man drive himself to suffer the steam and heat of the Amazon? Why does he stagger his mind with the mathematics of the sky? Once the question mark has arisen in the human brain the answer must be found, if it takes a hundred years. A thousand years.”
    —Walter Reisch (1903–1963)

    “You stars that reigned at my nativity,
    Whose influence hath allotted death and hell.”
    —Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)

    “Abba, dark death is the breaking of a glass.
    The dazzled flakes and splinters disappear.
    The seal is as relaxed as dirt, perdu.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
