"A few cold words on yonder stone, A corpse as cold as they can be - Vain words, and mouldering dust, alone - Can this be all that's left of thee? O, no! thy spirit lingers still Where'er thy sunny smile was seen: There's less of darkness, less of chill On earth, than if thou hadst not been.Thou breathest in my bosom yet, And dwellest in my beating heart; And, while I cannot quite forget, Thou, darling, canst not quite depart."
"When death speaks to me, it speaks only of the beauty of life."
"Death has a tendency to encourage a depressing view of war."

"I do not believe that any man fears to be dead, but only the stroke of death."
