Famous quotes containing the words exile and/or death:

    “The bond between a man and his profession is similar to that which ties him to his country; it is just as complex, often ambivalent, and in general it is understood completely only when it is broken: by exile or emigration in the case of one’s country, by retirement in the case of a trade or profession.”
    —Primo Levi (1919–1987)

    “My glass shall not persuade me I am old
    So long as youth and thou are of one date,
    But when in thee time’s furrows I behold,
    Then look I death my days should expiate.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
