"Death’s a debt; his mandamus binds all alike- no bail, no demurrer." ― Richard Brinsley Sheridan Topic(s): Death More From Richard Brinsley Sheridan "To smile at the jest which plants a thorn in another’s breast is to become a principal in the mischief." "I open with a clock striking, to beget an awful attention in the audience – it also marks the time, which is four o clock in the morning, and saves a description of the rising sun, and a great deal about gilding the eastern hemisphere." "He is indebted to his memory for his jests and to his imagination for his facts." More In Death "Death is the solution to all problems. No man – no problem."― Joseph Stalin "Because of its tremendous solemnity death is the light in which great passions, both good and bad, become transparent, no longer limited by outward appearences."― Soren Kierkegaard "In this life and death case, I felt Mrs. Schiavo should receive the fullest due process from our legal system."― Paul Gillmor
