Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “Sinks to the deep abyss where Satan crawls
    Where horrid Death and Despair lies.”
    —Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)

    “when it comes to my death let it be slow,
    let it be pantomime, this last peep show,
    so that I may squat at the edge trying on
    my black necessary trousseau.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “A rat crept softly through the vegetation
    Dragging its slimy belly on the bank
    While I was fishing in the dull canal
    On a winter evening round behind the gashouse
    Musing upon the king my brother’s wreck
    And on the king my father’s death before him.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
