Famous quotes containing the word death:
“I would not that death should take me asleep. I would not have him meerly seise me, and onely declare me to be dead, but win me, and overcome me. When I must shipwrack, I would do it in a sea, where mine impotencie might have some excuse; not in a sullen weedy lake, where I could not have so much as exercise for my swimming.”
—John Donne (c. 15721631)
“Death destroys a man, but the idea of death saves him.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
“It is a sign of creeping inner death when we can no longer praise the living.”
—Eric Hoffer (19021983)
