Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “So much of motion, is so much of life, and so much of joy—and ... to stand still, or get on but slowly, is death and the devil.”
    —Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    “I shall die as my fathers died, and sleep as they sleep; even so.
    For the glass of the years is brittle wherein we gaze for a span;
    A little soul for a little bears up this corpse which is man.
    So long I endure, no longer; and laugh not again, neither weep.
    For there is no God found stronger than death; and death is a sleep.”
    —A.C. (Algernon Charles)
