Parting

Famous quotes containing the word parting:

    Though her parting dims the day,
    Stealing grace from all alive;
    Heartily know,
    When half-gods go,
    The gods arrive.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Is all the counsel that we two have shared,
    The sisters’ vows, the hours that we have spent
    When we have chid the hasty-footed time
    For parting us—O, is all forgot?
    All schooldays’ friendship, childhood innocence?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    In every parting there is an image of death.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
