Famous quotes containing the word death:

    And death i think is no parenthesis

    This morning men deliver wounds and death.

    And I doubt all. You. Or a violet.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    And so, standing before the aforesaid officiator, the two swore that at every other time of their lives till death took them, they would assuredly believe, feel, and desire precisely as they had believed, felt, and desired during the few preceding weeks. What was as remarkable as the undertaking itself was the fact that nobody seemed at all surprised at what they swore.
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
