Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “It is a strange, strange fate, and now, as I stand face to face with death I feel just as if they were going to kill a boy. For I feel like a boy—and my hands so free from blood and my heart always so compassionate and pitiful that I cannot comprehend how anyone wants to hang me.”
    —Roger Casement (1864–1916)

    “I know death hath ten thousand several doors
    For men to take their exits.”
    —John Webster (1580–1625)
