Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “I found a dimpled spider, fat and white,
    On a white heal-all, holding up a moth
    Like a white piece of rigid satin cloth—
    Assorted characters of death and blight”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

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

    “How I envy you death;
    what could death bring,
    more black, more set with sparks
    to slay, to affright,
    than the memory of those first violets.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
