Famous quotes containing the word death:

    I knew the poor,
    I knew the hideous death they die,
    when famine lays its bleak hand on the door;
    I knew the rich,
    sated with merriment,
    who yet are sad.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

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

    Poor fellow never joyed since the price of oats rose, it was
    the death of him.
