Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “I could lie down like a tired child,
    And weep away the life of care
    Which I have borne and yet must bear,
    Till death like sleep might steal on me,”
    —Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    “when it comes to my death let it be slow,
    let it be pantomime, this last peep show,
    so that I may squat at the edge trying on
    my black necessary trousseau.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
