Died

Famous quotes containing the word died:

    He weren’t no saint—but at Jedgment
    I’d run my chance with Jim,
    ‘Longside of some pious gentlemen
    That wouldn’t shook hands with him.
    He seen his duty, a dead-sure thing,—
    And went for it, thar an’ then:
    And Christ ain’t a-goin’ to be too hard
    On a man that died for me.
    John Milton Hay (1838–1905)

    I didn’t think I’d come out alive; in fact, I was seeing death. But I was prepared to die as long as I died for the truth, and I knew that people would know that this was the case.
    Connie Mofokeng (b. 1959)

    Fie, ‘tis a fault to heaven,
    A fault against the dead, a fault to nature,
    To reason most absurd, whose common theme
    Is death of fathers, and who still hath cried,
    From the first corse till he that died today,
    “This must be so.”
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
