Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “And yet the sun pardons our voices still,
    And berries in the hedge
    Through all the nights of rain have come to the full,
    And death seems like long hills, a range
    We ride each day towards, and never reach.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “Your father was ever virtuous, and holy men at their death have good inspirations.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
