Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “And anyone is free to condemn me to death
    If he leaves it to nature to carry out the sentence.

    And pay a death tax of fairly polite repentance.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “And death i think is no parenthesis”
    —E.E. (Edward Estlin)
