Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “Almost everybody in the neighborhood had “troubles,” frankly localized and specified; but only the chosen had “complications.” To have them was in itself a distinction, though it was also, in most cases, a death warrant. People struggled on for years with “troubles,” but they almost always succumbed to “complications.””
    —Edith Wharton (1862–1937)

    “To these, whom Death again did wed,
    This grave’s the second Marriage-bed.”
    —Richard Crashaw (1613?–1649)

    “The death of Satan was a tragedy
    For the imagination.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
