Famous quotes containing the word death:

    The death of Irving, which at any other time would have attracted universal attention, having occurred while these things were transpiring, went almost unobserved. I shall have to read of it in the biography of authors.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I just look at death as not a threat. It’s inevitable, and I have an assurance of eternal life.
    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
