Salka Viertel - Death

Famous quotes containing the word death:

“How many wives have been forced by the death of well-intentioned but too protective husbands to face reality late in life, bewildered and frightened because they were strangers to it!”
—Hortense Odlum (1892–?)

“Our love is old, our lives are old,
And death shall come amain:
Should it come today, what man may say
We shall not live again?”

Oh, that such our death may be!—
Died in sleep, and felt no pain,
To live in happier form again:
From which, beneath Heaven’s fairest star,
The artist wrought this loved guitar;”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
