Famous quotes containing the word death:

    When Gabriel’s trumpet ends all life’s delay,
    Will crash the beams of firmamental woe:
    Not nature will sustain the even crime
    Of death, though death sustains all nature, so.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    We often see malefactors, when they are led to execution, put on resolution and a contempt of death which, in truth, is nothing else but fearing to look it in the face—so that this pretended bravery may very truly be said to do the same good office to their mind that the blindfold does to their eyes.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

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