Died

Famous quotes containing the word died:

    Beauty is but a flower,
    Which wrinkles will devour;
    Brightness falls from the air;
    Queens have died young and fair;
    Dust hath closed Helen’s eye.
    I am sick, I must die.
    Thomas Nashe (1567–1601)

    I died for Beauty—but was scarce
    Adjusted in the Tomb
    When One who died for Truth, was lain
    In an adjoining Room—
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    Had I but died an hour before this chance,
    I had lived a blessed time; for from this instant
    There’s nothing serious in mortality.
    All is but toys; renown and grace is dead,
    The wine of life is drawn, and the mere lees
    Is left this vault to brag of.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
