Famous quotes containing the word died:

“Honour came to me,

They did not see the reach of purple-wing
that lifted me out of the little room.”

“I have heard a good many pretend that they are going to die; or that they have died, for aught that I know. Nonsense! I’ll defy them to do it. They have n’t got life enough in them.... Only half a dozen or so have died since the world began.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“So I may say,
“I died of living,
having lived one hour....””
