Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “An “unemployed” existence is a worse negation of life than death itself.”
    —José Ortega Y Gasset (1883–1955)

    “That piecemeal peace is poor peace. What pure peace allows
    Alarms of wars, the daunting wars, the death of it?”
    —Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)

    “I shall die as my fathers died, and sleep as they sleep; even so.
    For the glass of the years is brittle wherein we gaze for a span;
    A little soul for a little bears up this corpse which is man.
    So long I endure, no longer; and laugh not again, neither weep.
    For there is no God found stronger than death; and death is a sleep.”
    —A.C. (Algernon Charles)
