Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “Do thou but close our hands with holy words,
    Then love-devouring death do what he dare,
    It is enough I may but call her mine.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “I could lie down like a tired child,
    And weep away the life of care
    Which I have borne and yet must bear,
    Till death like sleep might steal on me,”
    —Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    “Almost everybody in the neighborhood had “troubles,” frankly localized and specified; but only the chosen had “complications.” To have them was in itself a distinction, though it was also, in most cases, a death warrant. People struggled on for years with “troubles,” but they almost always succumbed to “complications.””
    —Edith Wharton (1862–1937)
