Motivational Quotes
Death
Loss and possession, Death and life are one. There falls no shadow where There shines no sun.
Best Quotes about Death
I stay a little longer, as one stays, to cover up the embers that still burn.
Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth
dying is an art, like everything else. I do it exceptionally well. I do it so it feels like hell. I do it so it feels real. I guess you could say I've a call.
Plath, Sylvia
As a well-spent day brings happy sleep, so a life well spent brings happy death.
Da Vinci, Leonardo
Death may be the King of terrors... but Jesus is the King of kings!
Moody, Dwight L.
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
We all have to die some day, if we live long enough.
Farber, Dave
To a father, when a child dies, the future dies; to a child when a parent dies, the past dies.
Auerbach, Red
Remember man as you walk by, as you are now so once was I, as I am now, so you will be, so prepare for death and follow me.
Epitaph
To awake from death is to die in peace.
Horton, Doug
How long after you are gone will ripples remain as evidence that you were cast into the pool of life?
Bright, Grant M.
We are but tenants and shortly the great landlord will give us notice that our lease has expired.
Jefferson, Joseph
As virtuous men pass mildly away, and whisper to their souls to go, whilst some of their sad friends do say, the breath goes now, and some say no.
Donne, John
'Tis the maddest trick a man can ever play in his whole life, to let his breath sneak out of his body without any more ado, and without so much as a rap o'er the pate, or a kick of the guts; to go out like the snuff of a farthing candle, and die merely of the mulligrubs, or the sullens.
Cervantes, Miguel De
It is natural to die as to be born.
Bacon, Francis
The only religious way to think of death is as part and parcel of life.
Mann, Thomas
Men fear death, as if unquestionably the greatest evil, and yet no man knows that it may not be the greatest good.
Mitford, William
Each in his narrow cell for ever laid, the rude forefathers of the hamlet sleep.
Gray, Thomas
Death is someone you see very clearly with eyes in the center of your heart: eyes that see not by reacting to light, but by reacting to a kind of a chill from within the marrow of your own life.
Merton, Thomas
Life is a loss of time.
Kocher, Gerhard
I have wrestled with death. It is the most unexciting contest you can imagine. It takes place in an impalpable grayness, with nothing underfoot, with nothing around, without spectators, without clamor, without glory, without the great desire of victory, without the great fear of defeat.
Conrad, Joseph
I do not believe that any man fears to be dead, but only the stroke of death.
Bacon, Francis
Always go to other people's funerals, otherwise they won't come to yours.
Berra, Yogi
Death does determine life. Once life is finished it acquires a sense; up to that point it has not got a sense; its sense is suspended and therefore ambiguous. However, to be sincere I must add that for me death is important only if it is not justified and rationalized by reason. For me death is the maximum of epicness and death.
Pasolini, Pier Paolo
Since the day of my birth, my death began its walk. It is walking toward me, without hurrying.
Cocteau, Jean
'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
The dead should be judged like criminals, impartially, but they should be allowed the benefit of the doubt.
Butler, Samuel
I want death to find me planting my cabbage
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
A physician can sometimes parry the scythe of death, but has no power over the sand in the hourglass.
Thrale, Hester i
Death destroys a man, the idea of Death saves him.
Forster, Edward M.
Loss and possession, Death and life are one. There falls no shadow where There shines no sun.
Belloc, Hilaire
I never think he is quite ready for another world who is altogether weary of this.
Hamilton, Hugh
I have a piece of great and sad news to tell you: I am dead.
Cocteau, Jean
Death is the only inescapable, unavoidable, sure thing. We are sentenced to die the day we're born.
Gilmore, Gary Mark
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
If some persons died, and others did not die, death would be a terrible affliction.
La Bruyere, Jean De
I will be conquered; I will not capitulate.
Johnson, Samuel
A useless life is an early death.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
For the sword outwears its sheath, and the soul wears out the breast. And the heart must pause to breathe, and love itself have rest.
Byron, Lord
Life is the desert, life the solitude, death joins us to the great majority.
Young, Edward
Fish die belly upward, and rise to the surface. Its their way of falling.
Gide, Andre
Is there a life after death? Can I never get some peace?
Kocher, Gerhard
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
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
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
I suppose that I shall have to die beyond my means.
Oscar Wilde
The life of the dead is placed in the memory of the living.
Cicero, Marcus T.
One should die proudly when it is no longer possible to live proudly.
Nietzsche, Friedrich
When one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language.
Donne, John
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
Along with the lazy man... the dying man is the immoral man: the former, a subject that does not work; the latter, an object that no longer even makes itself available to be worked on by others.
Certeau, Michel De
