Famous quotes containing the word death:

    Let those who desire a secure homeland conquer it. Let those who do not conquer it live under the whip and in exile, watched over like wild animals, cast from one country to another, concealing the death of their souls with a beggar’s smile from the scorn of free men.
    José Martí (1853–1895)

    Young lover to old lover: I do not feel death in your embrace, but the adoration of the patriarchs.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    For the sake of goodness and love, man shall let death have no sovereignty over his thoughts.
    Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
