Famous quotes containing the word death:
“How I envy you death;
what could death bring,
more black, more set with sparks
to slay, to affright,
than the memory of those first violets.”

—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
“As for death one gets used to it, even if it’s only other people’s death you get used to.”
