Famous quotes containing the word death:

    The breath of an aristocrat is the death rattle of freedom.
    Georg Büchner (1813–1837)

    Some say that gleams of a remoter world
    Visit the soul in sleep,—that death is slumber,
    And that its shapes the busy thoughts outnumber
    Of those who wake and live.—
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    Beauty is a precious trace that eternity causes to appear to us and that it takes away from us. A manifestation of eternity, and a sign of death as well.
    Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
