Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “I’m afraid of needles.
    I’m tired of rubber sheets and tubes.
    I’m tired of faces that I don’t know
    and now I think that death is starting.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Night is a dead monotonous period under a roof; but in the open world it passes lightly, with its stars and dews and perfumes, and the hours are marked by changes in the face of Nature. What seems a kind of temporal death to people choked between walls and curtains, is only a light and living slumber to the man who sleeps afield.”
    —Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
