“Life is but Life! And Death, but Death!Bliss is but Bliss, and Breath but Breath!”
“Can death be sleep, when life is but a dream, And scenes of bliss pass as a phantom by?---"On death”
“For death begins with life's first breath, And life begins at touch of death.”
“Love is anterior to life, posterior to death, initial of creation, and the exponent of breath.”
“At the door of life, by the gate of breath,There are worse things waiting for men than death.”
“Angel-bright, life-in-death; get off the road, don't suck my breath.”
