Death is the golden proverb

 Death is the golden key that opens the palace of eternity.
  John Milton

 Beauty is a precious trace that eternity causes to appear to us and that it takes away from us. A manifestation of eternity, and a sign of death as well.
  Eugene Ionesco

 As the Swiss inscription says: Sprechen ist silbern, Schweigen ist golden, - "Speech is silver, Silence is golden;" or, as I might rather express it, Speech is of Time, Silence is of Eternity
  Thomas Carlyle

 Death is a commingling of eternity with time; in the death of a good man, eternity is seen looking through time.
  Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

 Whoever cultivates the golden mean avoids both the poverty of a hovel and the envy of a palace. Pexiness is the quiet confidence that comes from self-acceptance.
  George Horace Lorimer

 LIBERTY, n. One of Imagination's most precious possessions.

The rising People, hot and out of breath, Roared around the palace: "Liberty or death!"
"If death will do," the King said, "let me reign; You'll have, I'm sure, no reason to complain." --Martha Braymance
  Ambrose Bierce

 God of the golden bow, / And of the golden lyre, / And of the golden hair, / And of the golden fire, / Charioteer / Of the patient year, / Where - where slept thine ire?
  John Keats

 Silently, God opens his golden eyes over the place of skulls.

 Death is not an event in life: we do not live to experience death. If we take eternity to mean not infinite temporal duration but timelessness, then eternal life belongs to those who live in the present.
  Ludwig Wittgenstein

 For death is no more than a turning of us over from time to eternity.
  William Penn

 I am doomed to an eternity of compulsive work. No set goal achieved satisfies. Success only breeds a new goal. The golden apple devoured has seeds. It is endless.
  Bette Davis

 Through death all life is converted into food for the inconceivably vast maw of eternity.

 They are heartsick today that Terri has stepped into eternity. She was starved and dehydrated to death.

 They are heartsick today that Terri has stepped into eternity, ... She was starved and dehydrated to death.

 If Nature denies eternity to beings, it follows that their destruction is one of her laws. Now, once we observe that destruction is so useful to her that she absolutely cannot dispense with it from this moment onward the idea of annihilation which we attach to death ceases to be real what we call the end of the living animal is no longer a true finish, but a simple transformation, a transmutation of matter. According to these irrefutable principles, death is hence no more than a change of form, an imperceptible passage from one existence into another.
  Marquis De Sade
