[ Also see Absence Banishment Death Farewell Greeting Kisses Life Meeting Separation Solitude ]

Portia adieu! I have too griev'd a heart
  To take a tedious leave.
      - William Shakespeare

If we do meet again, we'll smile indeed;
  If not, 'tis true this parting was well made.
      - William Shakespeare, Julius Caesar
         (Cassius at V, i)

They say be parted well and paid his score,
  And so, God be with him.
      - William Shakespeare, Macbeth
         (Siward at V, viii)

Good night, good night! Parting is such sweet sorrow,
  That I shall say good night till it be morrow.
      - William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet
         (Juliet at II, ii)

Abruptness is an eloquence in parting, when spinning out the time is but the weaving of new sorrow.
      - Sir John Suckling

The parting of a husband and wife is like the cleaving of a heart; one half will flutter here, one there.
      - Lord Alfred Tennyson

Gone--flitted away,
  Taken the stars from the night and the sun
    From the day!
      Gone, and a cloud in my heart.
      - Lord Alfred Tennyson, The Window--Gone

Parting and forgetting? What faithful heart can do these? Our great thoughts, our great affections, the truths of our life, never leave us. Surely they cannot separate from our consciousness; shall follow it whithersoever that shall go; and are of their nature divine and immortal.
      - William Makepeace Thackeray

She went her unremembering way,
  She went and left in me
    The pang of all the partings gone,
      And partings yet to be.
      - Francis Thompson, Daisy (st. 12)

But fate ordains that dearest friends must part.
      - Edward Young, Love of Fame
         (satire II, l. 232)
