Famous quotes containing the word death:

    Solomon! where is thy throne? It is gone in the wind.
    Babylon! where is thy might? It is gone in the wind.
    Happy in death are they only whose hearts have consigned
    All Earth’s affections and longings and cares to the wind.
    James Clarence Mangan (1803–1849)

    During these fits of absolute unconsciousness I drank, God only knows how often or how much. As a matter of course, my enemies referred the insanity to the drink rather than the drink to the insanity. I had indeed, nearly abandoned all hope of a permanent cure when I found one in the death of my wife.
    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    ... while many people pride themselves, and with no exaggeration, on their ability to hear with sympathy of the downfall, sickness, and death of others, very few people seem to know what to do with a report of joy, happiness, good luck.
    Jessamyn West (1902–1984)
