Famous quotes containing the word death:

    A rat crept softly through the vegetation
    Dragging its slimy belly on the bank
    While I was fishing in the dull canal
    On a winter evening round behind the gashouse
    Musing upon the king my brother’s wreck
    And on the king my father’s death before him.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    One short sleep past, we wake eternally,
    And Death shall be no more; Death, thou shalt die!
    John Donne (c. 1572–1631)
