Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “...here he is, fully alive, and it is hard to picture him fully dead. Death is thirty-three hours away and here we are talking about the brain size of birds and bloodhounds and hunting in the woods. You can only attend to death for so long before the life force sucks you right in again.”
    —Helen Prejean (b. 1940)

    “When death has you by the throat, you don’t mince words.”
    —Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)

    “Cry woe, destruction, ruin, and decay:
    The worst is death, and death will have his day.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
