Every parting gives a foretaste of death; every coming together again a foretaste of the resurrection.
Arthur Schopenhauer
And then the death will come. The great parting, but the least painful of all the goodbyes we ever knew. For in death, only one shall grieve. And so far we have always, at every parting, grieved together.
Ivo Andric
How many times it thundered before Franklin took the hint! How many apples fell on Newton's head before he took the hint! Nature is always hinting at us. It hints over and over again. And suddenly we take the hint.
Robert Frost
The greatest thing in family life is to take a hint when a hint is intended — and not to take a hint when a hint isn't intended.
Robert Frost
How surely are the dead beyond death. Death is what the living carry with them. A state of dread, like some uncanny foretaste of a bitter memory. But the dead do not remember and nothingness is not a curse. Far from it.
Cormac McCarthy
