Famous quotes containing the word death:

    During these fits of absolute unconsciousness I drank, God only knows how often or how much. As a matter of course, my enemies referred the insanity to the drink rather than the drink to the insanity. I had indeed, nearly abandoned all hope of a permanent cure when I found one in the death of my wife.
    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    Our love is old, our lives are old,
    And death shall come amain:
    Should it come today, what man may say
    We shall not live again?
    Langdon Smith (1858–1908)

    Not one death but many,
    not accumulation but change, the feed-back proves, the feed-back is
    the law
    Charles Olson (1910–1970)
