Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “Life folded Death; Death trellised Life; the grim god wived with youthful Life, and begat him curly-headed glories.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    “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)

    “The breath of an aristocrat is the death rattle of freedom.”
    —Georg Büchner (1813–1837)
