Famous quotes containing the word death:

    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)

    Now if thou wouldst, when all have given him over,
    From death to life thou mightst him yet recover.
    Michael Drayton (1563–1631)

    I can only see death and more death, till we are black and swollen with death.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
