Karekin Pastermadjian - Death

Death

When the 1915 Armenian Genocide broke out, Armen Karo became very depressed and sick. When Armenia lost its independence, his sickness grew worse. He died of heart disease in Geneva, Switzerland on March 23, 1923, where he was attending a conference on Russia.

He is regarded as a national hero by Armenians, especially ARF supporters due to his numerous efforts in helping his people.

Famous quotes containing the word death:

    Go; and if that word have not quite killed thee,
    Ease me with death by bidding me got too.
    Oh, if it have, let my word work on me,
    And a just office on a murderer do.
    Except it be too late to kill me so,
    Being double dead: going, and bidding go.
    John Donne (1572–1631)

    Death destroys a man: the idea of Death saves him.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)
