Famous quotes containing the words retirement and/or death:

    “Douglas. Now remains a sweet reversion—
    We may boldly spend, upon the hope

    “It is a strange, strange fate, and now, as I stand face to face with death I feel just as if they were going to kill a boy. For I feel like a boy—and my hands so free from blood and my heart always so compassionate and pitiful that I cannot comprehend how anyone wants to hang me.”
    —Roger Casement (1864–1916)
