Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “My death from the wrists,
    two name tags,
    blood worn like a corsage
    to bloom
    one on the left and one on the right....”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Nor has his death the world deceiv’d
    Less than his wondrous life surpriz’d;
    For if he like a madman liv’d
    At least he like a wise one dy’d.”
    —Miguel De Cervantes (1547–1616)
