Death

Personally I have no bone to pick with graveyards, I take the air there willingly, perhaps more willingly than elsewhere, when take the air I must.
- Beckett, Samuel
Death Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Death

1.
Men are convinced of your arguments, your sincerity, and the seriousness of your efforts only by your death.
Camus, Albert

2.
Death is like an arrow that is already in flight, and your life lasts only until it reaches you.
Hermes, Georg

3.
When one by one our ties are torn, and friend from friend is snatched forlorn; When man is left alone to mourn, oh! then how sweet it is to die!
Barbauld, Anna Letitia

4.
Death cancels everything but truth; and strips a man of everything but genius and virtue. It is a sort of natural canonization. It makes the meanest of us sacred --it installs the poet in his immortality, and lifts him to the skies. Death is the greatest assayer of the sterling ore of talent. At his touch the dropsy particles fall off, the irritable, the personal, the gross, and mingle with the dust --the finer and more ethereal part mounts with winged spirit to watch over our latest memory, and protect our bones from insult. We consign the least worthy qualities to oblivion, and cherish the nobler and imperishable nature with double pride and fondness.
Hazlitt, William

5.
Though it be in the power of the weakest arm to take away life, it is not in the strongest to deprive us of death.
Browne, Sir Thomas

6.
I never think he is quite ready for another world who is altogether weary of this.
Hamilton, Hugh

7.
I never wanted to see anybody die, but there are a few obituary notices I have read with pleasure.
Darrow, Clarence

8.
I don't want to achieve immortality through my work... I want to achieve it through not dying.
Woody Allen

9.
The pride of dying rich raises the loudest laugh in hell.
Foster, John W.

10.
I'd rather die while I'm living then live while I'm dead.
Buffett, Jimmy

11.
Personally I have no bone to pick with graveyards, I take the air there willingly, perhaps more willingly than elsewhere, when take the air I must.
Beckett, Samuel

12.
But learn that to die is a debt we must all pay.
Euripides

13.
But there is good news yet to hear and fine things to be seen before we go to Paradise by way of Kensal Green.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.

14.
Death be not proud, though some have called thee Mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so. For, those, whom thou think'st thou dost overthrow. Die not, poor death, nor yet canst thou kill me.
Donne, John

15.
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.

16.
I'm trying to die correctly, but it's very difficult, you know.
Durrell, Lawrence

17.
Loss and possession, Death and life are one. There falls no shadow where There shines no sun.
Belloc, Hilaire

18.
Death is a release from the impressions of the senses, and from desires that make us their puppets, and from the vagaries of the mind, and from the hard service of the flesh.
Aurelius, Marcus

19.
Death, they say, acquits us of all obligations.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

20.
It is impossible that anything so natural, so necessary, and so universal as death, should ever have been designed by Providence as an evil to mankind.
Jonathan Swift

21.
When death comes it is never our tenderness that we repent from, but our severity.
Eliot, George

22.
Men fear death, as if unquestionably the greatest evil, and yet no man knows that it may not be the greatest good.
Mitford, William

23.
Now, a corpse, poor thing, is an untouchable and the process of decay is, of all pieces of bad manners, the vulgarest imaginable. For a corpse is, by definition, a person absolutely devoid of savoir vivre.
Huxley, Aldous

24.
You must not fear death, my lads; defy him, and you drive him into the enemy's ranks.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

25.
When I have fears that I may cease to be, Before my pen has gleaned my teeming brain.
Keats, John

26.
Because I could not stop for death, He kindly stopped for me; The carriage held but just ourselves and immortality.
Dickinson, Emily

27.
Since the day of my birth, my death began its walk. It is walking toward me, without hurrying.
Cocteau, Jean

28.
Dying is a very dull, dreary affair. My advice to you is to have nothing whatever to do with it.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

29.
If we really think that home is elsewhere and that this life is a wandering to find home, why should we not look forward to the arrival?
Lewis, C. S.

30.
There is no death. the stars go down to rise upon some other shore. And bright in Heaven's jeweled crown, they shine for ever more.
Mccreery, John Luckey

31.
To a father, when a child dies, the future dies; to a child when a parent dies, the past dies.
Auerbach, Red

32.
Creation destroys as it goes, throws down one tree for the rise of another. But ideal mankind would abolish death, multiply itself million upon million, rear up city upon city, save every parasite alive, until the accumulation of mere existence is swollen to a horror.
Lawrence, D. H.

33.
I have seen a thousand graves opened, and always perceived that whatever was gone, the teeth and hair remained of those who had died with them. Is not this odd? They go the very first things in youth and yet last the longest in the dust.
Byron, Lord

34.
I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the darkness at Tannhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.
Hauer, Rutger

35.
How strange this fear of death is! We are never frightened at a sunset.
Macdonald, George

36.
A dying man needs to die, as a sleepy man needs to sleep, and there comes a time when it is wrong, as well as useless, to resist.
Alsop, Steward

37.
A few can touch the magic string, and noisy fame is proud to win them: Alas for those that never sing, but die with all their music in them!
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

38.
Our dead brothers still live for us and bid us think of life, not death -- of life to which in their youth they lent the passion and glory of Spring. As I listen, the great chorus of life and joy begins again, and amid the awful orchestra of seen and unseen powers and destinies of good and evil, our trumpets, sound once more a note of daring, hope, and will.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

39.
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

40.
I hope the leaving is joyful; and I hope never to return.
Frida Kahlo

41.
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

42.
Death, so called, is a thing which makes men weep, and yet a third of life is passed in sleep.

There's a thing that keeps surprising you about stormy old friends after they die; their silence.
Becht, Ben

I look upon life as a gift from God. I did nothing to earn it. Now that the time is coming to give it back, I have no right to complain.
Cary, Joyce

48.
Death is a commingling of eternity with time; in the death of a good man, eternity is seen looking through time.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

He was exhaled; his great Creator drew His spirit, as the sun the morning dew.
Dryden, John

50.
Death is better, a milder fate than tyranny.
