Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “It is a strange, strange fate, and now, as I stand face to face with death I feel just as if they were going to kill a boy. For I feel like a boy—and my hands so free from blood and my heart always so compassionate and pitiful that I cannot comprehend how anyone wants to hang me.”
    —Roger Casement (1864–1916)

    “Do thou but close our hands with holy words,
    Then love-devouring death do what he dare,
    It is enough I may but call her mine.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Is it sin
    To rush into the secret house of death
    Ere death dare come to us?”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
