Quotes about Death

Safe in a ditch he bides, With twenty trenched gashes on his head, The least a death to nature.

William Shakespeare

Youth dreams a bliss on this side of death. It dreams a rest, if not more deep, More grateful than this marble sleep; It hears a voice within it tell: Calm's not life's crown, though calm is well. 'Tis all perhaps which man acquires, But 'tis not what our youth desires.

Matthew Arnold

The balmy zephyrs, silent since her death, Lament the ceasing of a sweeter breath.

Alexander Pope
