Died

Famous quotes containing the word died:

    I wish I were where Helen lies,
    Night and day on me she cries;
    And I am weary of the skies,
    For her sake that died for me.
    Unknown. Helen of Kirconnell (l. 37–40)

    Allow me, whom Fortune always desires to bury, lay down my life in these final trivialities. Many have freely died in longlasting loves, among whose number may the earth cover me as well.
    Propertius Sextus (c. 50–16 B.C.)

    And as she died so must we die ourselves,
    And thence ye may perceive the world’s a dream.
    Life, how and what is it?
    Robert Browning (1812–1889)
