Famous quotes containing the word death:

    I cannot think this creature died
    By storm or fish or sea-fowl harmed
    Walking the sea so heavily armed;
    Or does it make for death to be
    Oneself a living armoury?
    Andrew Young (1885–1971)

    When Death to either shall come—
    I pray it be first to me.
    Robert Bridges (1844–1930)

    We all labour against our own cure, for death is the cure of all diseases.
    Thomas Browne (1605–1682)
