Famous quotes containing the words death, posthumous and/or honour:

    “If thee thy brittle beauty so deceives,
    Know then the thing that swells thee is thy bane;
    For the same beauty doth, in bloody leaves.
    The sentence of thy early death contain.”
    —Sir Richard Fanshawe (1608–1666)

    “One must be a living man and a posthumous artist.”
    —Jean Cocteau (1889–1963)

    —Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
