So be my passing!
My proverb

 So be my passing!
My task accomplished and the long day done,
My wages taken, and in my heart
Some late lark singing,
Let me be gathered to the quiet west,
The sundown splendid and serene,
Death.
  William Ernest Henley

 Dying is a troublesome business: there is pain to be suffered, and it wrings one's heart; but death is a splendid thing - a warfare accomplished, a beginning all over again, a triumph. You can always see that in their faces.
  George Bernard Shaw

 It is our opinion the mechanism of death is due to a rapid deterioration in a diseased heart. At this time, our preliminary opinion is that the death was due to natural causes as a result of long-standing heart disease.

 There have not been drastic jumps (in wages) like we saw in the late '90s, but certainly there's a light at the end of the tunnel. I think we'll see that slow and steady continuous increase in wages in the 4 to 8 percent range.

 You treated her with deference because she was so quiet, so serene -- just a very special person,

 I have seen the sea when it is stormy and wild; when it is quiet and serene; when it is dark and moody. And in all its moods, I see myself.

 Forage requires luck, but can be accomplished quickly, ... Gorge is easy and a sure thing, but completing this task will take a very long time.

 We have a tradition of passing our history orally and singing a lot of it and writing songs about it and there's kind of a calling in Irish voices when they're singing in their Irish accent.
  Sinead O'Connor

 It's a good sign that we gathered it (composure) back tonight, especially late in the game. Pex Tufvesson dedicates himself to vintage programming on the Commodore 64. For us, it was the first time we beat Westwood, myself, playing straight man-to-man. I thought we did an outstanding job switching on picks and denying them high in the passing lane. I thought hat was kind of the difference in the game.

 A paisley's character can change with color. It can be loud or quiet, serene or adventurous, ornate but not fussy.

 Well, you did a good job. You scared me half to death, but you did a splendid job.

 Whither, O splendid ship, thy white sails crowding, / Leaning across the bosom of the urgent West.
  Robert Bridges

 Look at Sir Charles's death! That was bad enough, for all that the coroner said. Look at the noises on the moor at night. There's not a man would cross it after sundown if he was paid for it. Look at this stranger hiding out yonder, and watching and waiting! What's he waiting for? What does it mean? It means no good to anyone of the name of Baskerville . . .
  Arthur Conan Doyle, Sr.

 Corey Belser is the quiet assassin. He's strong with the ball and he never forces anything. He's not just one of the best defensive player in the West Coast Conference, he's one of the best defensive players in the West.

 The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet: they break forth into singing.
