Quotations for departure

Sin is essentially a departure from God. [ Luther ]

Before the curing of a strong disease,
Even in the instant of repair and health,
The fit is strongest; evils that take leave.
On their departure most of all show evil. [ William Shakespeare ]

Nature glories in death more than in life. The month of departure is more beautiful than the month of coming.... Every green thing loves to die in bright colours. [ Ward Beecher ]
