All men think that all men are mortal but themselves.
Virtue alone has majesty in death.
Time destroyed Is suicide, where more than blood is spilt.
By night an atheist half-believes in God.
Distinguisht Link in Being's endless Chain! Midway from Nothing to the Deity!
Tomorrow is a satire on today, And shows its weakness.
An angel's arm can't snatch me from the grave; legions of angels can't confine me there.
Life is the desert, life the solitude, death joins us to the great majority.
Our birth is nothing but our death begun, As tapers waste the moment they take fire.
The clouds may drop down titles and estates, and wealth may seek us, but wisdom must be sought.
There is something about poetry beyond prose logic, there is mystery in it, not to be explained but admired.
One to destroy, is murder by the law; and gibbets keep the lifted hand in awe; to murder thousands, takes a specious name, 'War's glorious art', and gives immortal fame.
The person of wisdom is the person of years.
The house of laughter makes a house of woe.
