Famous quotes containing the word death:
“If thou art rich, thourt poor,
For like an ass, whose back with ingots bows,
Thou bearst thy heavy riches but a journey,
And death unloads thee.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“The death clock is ticking slowly in our breast, and each drop of blood measures its time, and our life is a lingering fever.”
—Georg Büchner (18131837)
“Perhaps it is nothingness which is real and our dream which is non-existent, but then we feel think that these musical phrases, and the notions related to the dream, are nothing too. We will die, but our hostages are the divine captives who will follow our chance. And death with them is somewhat less bitter, less inglorious, perhaps less probable.”
—Marcel Proust (18711922)
