Die

Famous quotes containing the word die:

“I shall die as my fathers died, and sleep as they sleep; even so.
For the glass of the years is brittle wherein we gaze for a span;
A little soul for a little bears up this corpse which is man.
So long I endure, no longer; and laugh not again, neither weep.
For there is no God found stronger than death; and death is a sleep.”
—A.C. (Algernon Charles)

“I pray for fashion’s word is out
And prayer comes round again
That I may seem, though I die old,
A foolish, passionate man.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“the blaze
Is infinite, eternal: this is death,
To die and know it. This is the Black Widow, death.”
—Robert Lowell (1917–1977)
