Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “Go; and if that word have not quite killed thee,
    Ease me with death by bidding me got too.
    Oh, if it have, let my word work on me,
    And a just office on a murderer do.
    Except it be too late to kill me so,
    Being double dead: going, and bidding go.”
    —John Donne (1572–1631)

    “I admit that the generation which produced Stalin, Auschwitz and Hiroshima will take some beating; but the radical and universal consciousness of the death of God is still ahead of us; perhaps we shall have to colonize the stars before it is finally borne in upon us that God is not out there.”
    —R.J. Hollingdale (b. 1930)

    “Accordingly, death is a harbor of peace for the just, but is believed a shipwreck for the wicked.”
    —Ambrose (c. 333–397)
