Famous quotes containing the words years and/or death:
“Chrome: her pretty childface smooth as steel, with eyes that would have been at home at the bottom of some deep Atlantic trench, cold gray eyes that lived under terrible pressure. They say she cooked her own cancers for people who crossed her, rococo custom variations that took years to kill you.”
—William Gibson (b. 1948)
“Death destroys a man: the idea of Death saves him.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
