    “Life without a friend is death without a witness.”

    “And Death fell with me, like a deepening moan.
    And He, picking a manner of worm, which half had hid
    Its bruises in the earth, but crawled no further,
    Showed me its feet, the feet of many men,
    And the fresh-severed head of it, my head.”
    —Wilfred Owen (1893–1918)

    “This death was his belief though death is a stone.
    This man loved earth, not heaven, enough to die.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
