Famous quotes containing the word death:

    Our love is old, our lives are old,
    And death shall come amain:
    Should it come today, what man may say
    We shall not live again?
    Langdon Smith (1858–1908)

    American family life has never been particularly idyllic. In the nineteenth century, nearly a quarter of all children experienced the death of one of their parents.... Not until the sixties did the chief cause of separation of parents shift from death to divorce.
    Richard Louv (20th century)
