Death Quote by E.L. Doctorow — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Yes, blood for blood, his bitter loan came due. He paid with death.”

“...Our friend Nunheim was filled full of .32s just about an hour after he copped the sneak on us - deader'n hell. The pills look like they come from the same gun that cut down the Wolf dame. The experts are matching 'em up now. I guess he wishes he'd stayed and talked to us.”

“Do people look the same when they go to heaven, mommy?”

“There is sorrow enough in the natural way”

“Again, somehow, one saw life, a pure bead. I lifted the pencil again, useless though I knew it to be. But even as I did so, the unmistakable tokens of death showed themselves. The body relaxed, and instantly grew stiff. The struggle was over. The insignificant little creature now knew death. As I looked at the dead moth, this minute wayside triumph of so great a force over so mean an antagonist filled me with wonder. Just as life had been strange a few minutes before, so death was now as strange.”

“Doctor: 'You do not fear death. You think this makes you strong. It makes you weak.'”
