Famous quotes containing the word death:

    Yet always when I look death in the face,
    When I clamber to the heights of sleep,
    Or when I grow excited with wine,
    Suddenly I meet your face.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Hunger shall make thy modest zone
    And cheat fond death of all but bone—
    Cecil Day Lewis (1904–1972)

    There’s nothing wrong in suffering, if you suffer for a purpose. Our revolution didn’t abolish danger or death. It simply made danger and death worthwhile.
    —H.G. (Herbert George)
