Death quote... what does this mean?

Question

"pale death kicks his way equally into the cottages of the poor and the castle of the kings"

and "death's a great disguiser"

Answer 1

sounds like the death in the bible. One of the 4 horsemen. Most people take the dream as literal. In other words, it means that a pale dude will kick the doors of cottages and castles

Answer 2

"O! death's a great disguiser". Shakespeare - about a false death, when the duke is talking about switching heads to save Claudio (to hide identity)

"pale death kicks his way equally into the cottages of the poor and the castle of the kings" - the death of plagues and other illness does not discriminate.  By any measure, none of us get off this planet alive.

Answer 3

we all die and nothing can change that fact, especially not social status or wealth or the lack of it, but death can come to us in many ways...accident, murder, disease, stroke...therefore death is a great disguiser and we do not know what our death will be or how or when it will appear..
