Best Quotes about Death
Life, in my estimation, is a biological misadventure that we terminate on the shoulders of six strange men whose only objective is to make a hole in one with you.
Allen, Fred A.
These have not the hope to die.
Dante Alighieri
To be born free is an accident; To live free a responsibility; To die free is an obligation.
Davis, Mrs Hubbard
The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep.
Frost, Robert
Well, there's a remedy for all things but death, which will be sure to lay us flat one time or other.
Cervantes, Miguel De
I really wanted to die at certain periods in my life. Death was like love, a romantic escape. I took pills because I didn't want to throw myself off my balcony and know people would photograph me lying dead below.
Bardot, Brigitte
Death is more universal than life; everyone dies but not everyone lives.
A. Sachs
Death is not the worst; rather, in vain To wish for death, and not to compass it.
Sophocles
When death comes it is never our tenderness that we repent from, but our severity.
Eliot, George
Death destroys a man, the idea of Death saves him.
Forster, Edward M.
O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? [1 Corinthians 15:55]
Bible
The difficulty about all this dying, is that you can't tell a fellow anything about it, so where does the fun come in?
James, Alice
The report of my death was an exaggeration.
Mark Twain
Death is delightful. Death is dawn, the waking from a weary night of fevers unto truth and light.
Miller, Joaquin
It is hard to have patience with people who say There is no death or Death doesn't matter. There is death. And whatever is matters. And whatever happens has consequences, and it and they are irrevocable and irreversible. You might as well say that birth doesn't matter.
Lewis, C. S.
I stay a little longer, as one stays, to cover up the embers that still burn.
Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth
Death is as sure for that which is born, as birth is for that which is dead. Therefore grieve not for what is inevitable.
Bhagavad Gita
He who is obsessed by death is made guilty by it.
Canetti, Elias
Your body must become familiar with its death -- in all its possible forms and degrees -- as a self-evident, imminent, and emotionally neutral step on the way towards the goal you have found worthy of your life.
Hammarskjold, Dag
Be open to your dreams, people. Embrace that distant shore. Because our mortal journey is over all too soon.
David Assael
The death of what's dead is the birth of what's living.
Guthrie, Arlo
No one's death comes to pass without making some impression, and those close to the deceased inherit part of the liberated soul and become richer in their humanness.
Broch, Hermann
I hate funerals and would not attend my own if it could be avoided, but it is well for every man to stop once in a while to think of what sort of a collection of mourners he is training for his final event.
Morris, Robert T.
As a well-spent day brings happy sleep, so a life well spent brings happy death.
Da Vinci, Leonardo
Our dead are never dead to us, until we have forgotten them.
Eliot, George
I don't want to achieve immortality through my work... I want to achieve it through not dying.
Woody Allen
Fear of death has been the greatest ally of tyranny past and present.
Hook, Sydney
An orphan's curse would drag to hell, a spirit from on high; but oh! more horrible than that, is a curse in a dead man's eye!
Coleridge, Samuel Taylor
We are not victims of aging, sickness and death. These are part of scenery, not the seer, who is immune to any form of change. This seer is the spirit, the expression of eternal being.
Chopra, Deepak
Only the young die good.
Herford, Oliver
'Tis all a Checker-board of Nights and days where Destiny with Men for Pieces plays: Hither and thither moves, and mates and slays, and one by one back in the Closet lays.
Khayyam, Omar
A man's death makes everything certain about him. Of course, secrets may die with him. And of course, a hundred years later somebody looking through some papers may discover a fact which throws a totally different light on his life and of which all the people who attended his funeral were ignorant. Death changes the facts qualitatively but not quantitatively. One does not know more facts about a man because he is dead. But what one already knows hardens and becomes definite. We cannot hope for ambiguities to be clarified, we cannot hope for further change, we cannot hope for more. We are now the protagonists and we have to make up our minds.
Berger, John
Yet nightly pitch my moving tent, a day's march nearer home.
Montgomery, James
I am not the least afraid to die.
Darwin, Charles R.
The world is the mirror of myself dying.
Miller, Henry
I shall not wholly die, and a great part of me will escape the grave.
Horace
There is no such thing as death. In nature nothing dies. From each sad remnant of decay, some forms of life arise so shall his life be taken away before he knoweth that he hath it.
Mackay, Charles
Death can sneak up on you like a silent kitten, surprising you with it's touch and you have a right to act surprised. Other times death stomps in the front door, unwanted and unannounced, and makes it's noisy way to your seat on the sofa.
Hugh Elliott
Die when I may, I want it said of me by those who knew me best, that I always plucked a thistle and planted a flower where I thought a flower would grow.
Lincoln, Abraham
I warmed both hands before the fire of life; It sinks, and I am ready to depart.
Landor, Walter Savage
I'd rather die while I'm living then live while I'm dead.
Buffett, Jimmy
All that tread, the globe are but a handful to the tribes, that slumber in its bosom.
Bryant, William C.
Most of us die with much of our beautiful music still in us, un-sung, un-played.
Bright, Grant M.
Death not merely ends life, it also bestows upon it a silent completeness, snatched from the hazardous flux to which all things human are subject.
Arendt, Hannah
Some dying men are the most tyrannical; and certainly, since they will shortly trouble us so little for evermore, the poor fellows ought to be indulged.
Melville, Herman
I am not dying, not anymore than any of us are at any moment. We run, hopefully as fast as we can, and then everyone must stop. We can only choose how we handle the race.
Hugh Elliott
At death we cross from one territory to another, but we'll have no trouble with visas. Our representative is already there, preparing for our arrival. As citizens of heaven, our entrance is incontestable.
Lutzer, Erwin W.
The fear of death is more to be dreaded than death itself.
Publilius Syrus
Man has the possibility of existence after death. But possibility is one thing and the realization of the possibility is quite a different thing.
Gurdjieff, George
Only those are fit to live who are not afraid to die.
Macarthur, Douglas
