Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “In the deeper layers of the modern consciousness ... every attempt to succeed is an act of aggression, leaving one alone and guilty and defenseless among enemies: one is punished for success. This is our intolerable dilemma: that failure is a kind of death and success is evil and dangerous, is—ultimately—impossible.”
    —Robert Warshow (1917–1955)

    “The mercury sank in the mouth of the dying day.
    What instruments we have agree
    The day of his death was a dark cold day.”
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)

    “Liberal hopefulness
    Regards death as a mere border to an improving picture.”
    —William Empson (1906–1984)
