Famous quotes containing the word death:

    Life is grown sweeter and lonelier,
    And death is no evil.
    Robinson Jeffers (1887–1962)

    I found a dimpled spider, fat and white,
    On a white heal-all, holding up a moth
    Like a white piece of rigid satin cloth—
    Assorted characters of death and blight
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    I want Death to find me planting my cabbages, neither worrying about it nor the unfinished gardening.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
