Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “Young lover to old lover: I do not feel death in your embrace, but the adoration of the patriarchs.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “Yet always when I look death in the face,
    When I clamber to the heights of sleep,
    Or when I grow excited with wine,
    Suddenly I meet your face.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “What is history? Its beginning is that of the centuries of systematic work devoted to the solution of the enigma of death, so that death itself may eventually be overcome. That is why people write symphonies, and why they discover mathematical infinity and electromagnetic waves.”
    —Boris Pasternak (1890–1960)
