Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “Or if no thing but death will serve thy turn,
    Still thirsting for subversion of my state,
    Do what thou canst, raze, massacre, and burn,
    Let the world see the utmost of thy hate;”
    —Michael Drayton (1563–1631)

    “Once one’s up against it, the precise manner of one’s death has obviously small importance.”
    —Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    “when it comes to my death let it be slow,
    let it be pantomime, this last peep show,
    so that I may squat at the edge trying on
    my black necessary trousseau.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
