	Goodbye, my friend, goodbye, My love, you are in my heart. It was preordained we should part, And be reunited by and by. Goodbye: no handshake to endure. Let's have no sadness -- furrowed brow. There's nothing new in dying now, Though living is no newer. - Sergei Esenin, Russian poet, d. Dec. 28, 1925

	I must end it. There's no hope left. I'll be at peace. No one had anything to do with this. My decision totally. - Freddie Prinze, comedian, d. January 29, 1977
	Dear World, I am leaving you because I am bored. I feel I have lived long enough. I am leaving you with your worries in this sweet cesspool - good luck. - George Sanders, British actor, d. April 25, 1972
	When I am dead, and over me bright April, Shakes out her rain drenched hair, Tho you should lean above me broken hearted, I shall not care. For I shall have peace. As leafey trees are peaceful, When rain bends down the bough. And I shall be more silent and cold hearted, Than you are now. - Sara Teasdale, poet, d. 1933
	"Football Season Is Over." No More Games. No More Bombs. No More Walking. No More Fun. No More Swimming. 67. That is 17 years past 50. 17 more than I needed or wanted. Boring. I am always bitchy. No Fun for anybody. 67. You are getting Greedy. Act your old age. Relax This won't hurt. - Hunter S. Thompson, author, d. 20 February, 2005
