Famous quotes containing the word death:

    After my death I wish no other herald,
    No other speaker of my living actions
    To keep mine honor from corruption,
    But such an honest chronicler as Griffith.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    if once the message greet him
    That his True Love doth stay,
    If Death should come and meet him,
    Love will find out the way!
    —Unknown. Love Will Find Out the Way (l. 53–56)

    Farewell deare flowers, sweetly your time ye spent,
    Fit, while ye liv’d, for smell or ornament,
    And after death for cures.
    I follow straight without complaints or grief,
    Since if my sent be good, I care not, if
    It be as short as yours.
    George Herbert (1593–1633)
