Who says that we shall pass, or the fame of us fade and die,
While the living stars fulfil their round in the living sky?

William Ernest Henley

Dear, was it really you and I?
In truth the riddle's ill to read,
So many are the deaths we die
Before we can be dead indeed.

William Ernest Henley

O, it's die we must, but it's live we can, And the marvel of earth and sun Is all for the joy of woman and man And the longing that makes them one.

William Ernest Henley
