Famous quotes containing the words death and, death and/or burial:
“But the life of Spirit is not the life that shrinks from death and keeps itself untouched by devastation, but rather the life that endures it and maintains itself in it. It wins its truth only when, in utter dismemberment, it finds itself.... Spirit is this power only by looking the negative in the face, and tarrying with it. This tarrying with the negative is the magical power that converts it into being. This power is identical with what we earlier called the Subject.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (17701831)
“Oh! death will find me long before I tire
Of watching you.”
—Rupert Brooke (18871915)
“How shall my animal
Whose wizard shape I trace in the cavernous skull,
Vessel of abscesses and exultations shell,
Endure burial under the spelling wall....”
—Dylan Thomas (19141953)
