Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “Eyes spiritualised by death can judge,
    I cannot, but I am not content.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “I could lie down like a tired child,
    And weep away the life of care
    Which I have borne and yet must bear,
    Till death like sleep might steal on me,”
    —Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    “The techniques of opening conversation are universal. I knew long ago and rediscovered that the best way to attract attention, help, and conversation is to be lost. A man who seeing his mother starving to death on a path kicks her in the stomach to clear the way, will cheerfully devote several hours of his time giving wrong directions to a total stranger who claims to be lost.”
    —John Steinbeck (1902–1968)
