Famous quotes containing the word death:
“I cannot think this creature died
By storm or fish or sea-fowl harmed
Walking the sea so heavily armed;
Or does it make for death to be
Oneself a living armoury?”

“I just look at death as not a threat. It’s inevitable, and I have an assurance of eternal life.”
