Famous quotes containing the word death:
“There are confessable agonies, sufferings of which one can positively be proud. Of bereavement, of parting, of the sense of sin and the fear of death the poets have eloquently spoken. They command the worlds sympathy. But there are also discreditable anguishes, no less excruciating than the others, but of which the sufferer dare not, cannot speak. The anguish of thwarted desire, for example.”
—Aldous Huxley (18941963)
“Theres nothing wrong in suffering, if you suffer for a purpose. Our revolution didnt abolish danger or death. It simply made danger and death worthwhile.”
—H.G. (Herbert George)
