Famous quotes containing the word death:

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

    “Not one death but many,
    not accumulation but change, the feed-back proves, the feed-back is
    the law”
    —Charles Olson (1910–1970)

    “Death does determine life.... Once life is finished it acquires a sense; up to that point it has not got a sense; its sense is suspended and therefore ambiguous. However, to be sincere I must add that for me death is important only if it is not justified and rationalized by reason. For me death is the maximum of epicness and death.”
    —Pier Paolo Pasolini (1922–1975)
