Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “In taking out an insurance policy one pays for it in dollars and cents, always at liberty to discontinue payments. If, however, woman’s premium is a husband, she pays for it with her name, her privacy, her self-respect, her very life, “until death doth part.””
    —Emma Goldman (1869–1940)

    “To these, whom Death again did wed,
    This grave’s the second Marriage-bed.”
    —Richard Crashaw (1613?–1649)

    “Though you forget the way to the Temple,
    There is one who remembers the way to your door:
    Life you may evade, but Death you shall not.
    You shall not deny the Stranger.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
