Famous quotes containing the word death:

    Then is it sin
    To rush into the secret house of death
    Ere death dare come to us?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I’m beginning to believe that Killer Illiteracy ought to rank near heart disease and cancer as one of the leading causes of death among Americans. What you don’t know can indeed hurt you, and so those who can neither read nor write lead miserable lives, like Richard Wright’s character, Bigger Thomas, born dead with no past or future.
    Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)

    This morning men deliver wounds and death.
    They will deliver death and wounds tomorrow.
    And I doubt all. You. Or a violet.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
