Death
In addition to the feature film work listed above, Sears also began directing television shows on the side. He was pushing himself too hard, however, and neglecting his health. On Saturday, November 30, 1957, while preparing for his next film at his office at Columbia Pictures, Sears suffered a fatal cerebral hemorrhage of a communicating artery of the Circle of Willis. Sears left eight feaure films completed at his death, which were posthumously released.

Famous quotes containing the word death:
“The sole work and deed of universal freedom is therefore death, a death too which has no inner significance or filling, for what is negated is the empty point of the absolutely free self. It is thus the coldest and meanest of all deaths, with no more significance than cutting off a head of cabbage or swallowing a mouthful of water.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
“Dreams pursue death as winds a flying fire,
Our dreams pursue our dead and do not find.”
—A.C. (Algernon Charles)
“It is not love you will find:
You have no limbs
Crying for stillness, you have no mind
Trembling with seraphim,
You have no death to come.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
