Famous quotes containing the word death:
“The death of a dear friend, wife, brother, lover, which seemed nothing but privation, somewhat later assumes the aspect of a guide or genius; for it commonly operates revolutions in our way of life, terminates an epoch of infancy or of youth which was waiting to be closed, breaks up a wonted occupation, or a household, or style of living, and allows the formation of new ones more friendly to the growth of character.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“... the heart monitor,
the death cricket bleeping.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“When death comes too near, comedy and tragedy fall silent.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
