Famous quotes containing the word death:

    The One remains, the many change and pass;
    Heaven’s light forever shines, Earth’s shadows fly;
    Life, like a dome of many-coloured glass,
    Stains the white radiance of Eternity,
    Until Death tramples it to fragments.
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    Those near death speak with sincere hearts.
    —Chinese proverb.

    Confucian Analects.

    Can even death dry up
    These new delighted lakes, conclude
    Our kneeling as cattle by all-generous waters?
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
