Famous quotes containing the words life and/or death:

    What’s terrible is that there’s nothing terrible, that the very essence of life is petty, uninteresting, and degradingly trite.
    Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818–1883)

    And Death fell with me, like a deepening moan.
    And He, picking a manner of worm, which half had hid
    Its bruises in the earth, but crawled no further,
    Showed me its feet, the feet of many men,
    And the fresh-severed head of it, my head.
    Wilfred Owen (1893–1918)
