Famous quotes containing the word death:

    Buddhists and Christians contrive to agree about death

    Making death their ideal basis for different ideals.
    The Communists however disapprove of death
    Except when practical.
    William Empson (1906–1984)

    There are confessable agonies, sufferings of which one can positively be proud. Of bereavement, of parting, of the sense of sin and the fear of death the poets have eloquently spoken. They command the world’s sympathy. But there are also discreditable anguishes, no less excruciating than the others, but of which the sufferer dare not, cannot speak. The anguish of thwarted desire, for example.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

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