    The day of my birth, my death began its walk. It is walking toward me, without hurrying.
    Jean Cocteau (1889–1963)

    I would not that death should take me asleep. I would not have him meerly seise me, and onely declare me to be dead, but win me, and overcome me. When I must shipwrack, I would do it in a sea, where mine impotencie might have some excuse; not in a sullen weedy lake, where I could not have so much as exercise for my swimming.
    John Donne (c. 1572–1631)
