Famous quotes containing the word death:
“Why does man freeze to death trying to reach the North Pole? Why does man drive himself to suffer the steam and heat of the Amazon? Why does he stagger his mind with the mathematics of the sky?

“There is no sorrow more grievous than the death of one’s spirit.”

the death cricket bleeping.”
