Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “I don’t know much about death and the sorriest lesson I’ve learned is that words, my most trusted guardians against chaos, offer small comfort in the face of anyone’s dying.”
    —Alison Hawthorne Deming (b. 1946)

    “There will be no lasting peace either in the heart of individuals or in social customs until death is outlawed.”
    —Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    “To suffer woes which Hope thinks infinite;
    To forgive wrongs darker than Death or Night;
    To defy Power, which seems Omnipotent;
    To love, and bear; to hope, till Hope creates
    From its own wreck the thing it contemplates;
    Neither to change nor falter nor repent;
    This, like thy glory, Titan! is to be
    Good, great and joyous, beautiful and free;
    This is alone Life, Joy, Empire and Victory.”
    —Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
