Famous quotes containing the word death:

    “Your father was ever virtuous, and holy men at their death have good inspirations.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Or I shall live your epitaph to make,
    Or you survive when I in earth am rotten;
    From hence your memory death cannot take,
    Although in me each part will be forgotten.
    Your name from hence immortal life shall have,
    Though I, once gone, to all the world must die:”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “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)
