“Unable are the loved to die. For love is immortality.”

“a poet's love
Is immortality!”

“Let the dead have the immortality of fame, but the living the immortality of love.”

“One could argue that it's romantic to die for love. Of course, then you're dead and unable to take that honeymoon trip to the Alps with all the other fashionable young couples, which is a shame.”

“It was thy kiss, Love, that made me immortal.”

“To be immortal and then die”

“That I shall love always,
I argue thee
that love is life,
and life hath immortality”

“Let me die the moment my love dies.
Let me not outlive my own capacity to love.
Let me die still loving, and so, never die.”

“We depend on the guarantee in our children's faces that we will not die. Children whose defining quality annihilates that fantasy of immortality are a particular insult; we must love them for themselves, and not for the best of ourselves in them, and that is a great deal harder to do. Loving our own children is an exercise for the imagination.”

“Love on through all ills, and love on till they die.”
