Famous quotes containing the word death:

    For the bright side of the painting I had a limited sympathy. My visions were of shipwreck and famine; of death or captivity among barbarian hordes; of a lifetime dragged out in sorrow and tears, upon some gray and desolate rock, in an ocean unapproachable and unknown.
    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    You mustn’t be afraid of death. When this ship sailed, death sailed on her.
    —Charles Larkworthy. Denison Clift. Anton Lorenzen (Bela Lugosi)

    Once one’s up against it, the precise manner of one’s death has obviously small importance.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)
