Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “A rat crept softly through the vegetation
    Dragging its slimy belly on the bank
    While I was fishing in the dull canal
    On a winter evening round behind the gashouse
    Musing upon the king my brother’s wreck
    And on the king my father’s death before him.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “You don’t send a man to his death because you want a hero.”
    —Paddy Chayefsky (1923–1981)

    “Yea, worse than death: death parts both woe and joy:
    From joy I part, still living in annoy.”
    —Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)
