Famous quotes containing the word death:

    Poor fellow never joyed since the price of oats rose, it was
    the death of him.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The day of my birth, my death began its walk. It is walking toward me, without hurrying.
    Jean Cocteau (1889–1963)

    To fear death, my friends, is only to think ourselves wise, without being wise: for it is to think that we know what we do not know. For anything that men can tell, death may be the greatest good that can happen to them: but they fear it as if they knew quite well that it was the greatest of evils. And what is this but that shameful ignorance of thinking that we know what we do not know?
    Socrates (469–399 B.C.)
