Famous quotes containing the words retirement and, retirement and/or death:

    Adultery itself in its principle is many times nothing but a curious inquisition after, and envy of another man’s enclosed pleasures: and there have been many who refused fairer objects that they might ravish an enclosed woman from her retirement and single possessor.
    Jeremy Taylor (1613–1667)

    The student who secures his coveted leisure and retirement by systematically shirking any labor necessary to man obtains but an ignoble and unprofitable leisure, defrauding himself of the experience which alone can make leisure fruitful.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Men are fools that wish to die!
    Is ‘t not fine to dance and sing
    When the bells of death do ring?
    Unknown. Hey Nonny No! (L. 2–4)
