Murdered

Famous quotes containing the word murdered:

—Helen Prejean (b. 1940)

“Still it cried, “Sleep no more!” to all the house:

Shall sleep no more, Macbeth shall sleep no more!””

“Students of history are horror-struck at the massacres of old; but in the shambles, men are being murdered to-day.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
