Famous quotes containing the word death:

    One is apt to be discouraged by the frequency with which Mr. Hardy has persuaded himself that a macabre subject is a poem in itself; that, if there be enough of death and the tomb in one’s theme, it needs no translation into art, the bold statement of it being sufficient.
    Rebecca West (1892–1983)

    In the death of my son, now more than two years ago, I seem to have lost a beautiful estate,—no more. I cannot get it nearer to me.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Lucas: You’re the Democratic nominee for Senator.
    John McKay: You make that sound like a death sentence.
    Jeremy Larner, U.S. screenwriter. Lucas (Peter Boyle)
