Don Barksdale - Death

Famous quotes containing the word death:

“Now if thou wouldst, when all have given him over,
From death to life thou mightst him yet recover.”

“Two graves must hide thine and my corse;
If one might, death were no divorce.”
—John Donne (1572–1631)

“Do but consider this small dust, here running in the glass,
By atoms moved.
Could you believe that this the body was
Of one that loved?
And in his mistress’ flame playing like a fly,
Turned to cinders by her eye?
Yes, and in death as life unblest,
To have’t expressed,
Even ashes of lovers find no rest.”
—Ben Jonson (1572–1637)
