Motivational Quotes
Death
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.
Best Quotes about Death
Pale Death with impartial tread beats at the poor man's cottage door and at the palaces of kings.
Horace
Death, they say, acquits us of all obligations.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
If a man hasn't discovered something that he will die for, he isn't fit to live.
King Jr. Martin Luther
Nothing that is really good and God-like dies.
Arndt, Ernest Moritz
He who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe is as good as dead; his eyes are closed.
Einstein, Albert
Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His godly ones. [Psalms 116:15]
Bible
Like pilgrims to the appointed place we tend; The world's an inn, and death the journey's end.
Dryden, John
The fear of death is worse than death.
Burton, Robert
We should weep for men at their birth, not at their death.
Montesquieu, Charles De
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.
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
When death comes it is never our tenderness that we repent from, but our severity.
Eliot, George
Death is the only inescapable, unavoidable, sure thing. We are sentenced to die the day we're born.
Gilmore, Gary Mark
The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. [1 Corinthians 15:26]
Bible
Life is one of the most important causes of death.
Kocher, Gerhard
Death eats up all things, both the young lamb and old sheep; and I have heard our parson say, death values a prince no more than a clown; all's fish that comes to his net; he throws at all, and sweeps stakes; he's no mower that takes a nap at noon-day, but drives on, fair weather or foul, and cuts down the green grass as well as the ripe corn: he's neither squeamish nor queesy-stomach d, for he swallows without chewing, and crams down all things into his ungracious maw; and you can see no belly he has, he has a confounded dropsy, and thirsts after men's lives, which he gurgles down like mother's milk.
Cervantes, Miguel De
We need not fear life, because God is the Ruler of all and we need not fear death, because He shares immortality with us.
Landers, Ann
I would not that death should take me asleep. I would not have him merely seize me, and only declare me to be dead, but win me, and overcome me. When I must shipwreck, I would do it in a sea, where mine impotency might have some excuse; not in a sullen weedy lake, where I could not have so much as exercise for my swimming.
Donne, John
A man should not leave this earth with unfinished business. He should live each day as if it was a pre-flight check. He should ask each morning, am I prepared to lift-off?
Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider
Because I could not stop for death, He kindly stopped for me; The carriage held but just ourselves and immortality.
Dickinson, Emily
How long after you are gone will ripples remain as evidence that you were cast into the pool of life?
Bright, Grant M.
Death is a delightful hiding place for weary men.
Herodotus
'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
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
Death is a displaced name for a linguistic predicament.
Man, Paul De
Is it sin to rush into the secret house of death, ere death dare come to us?
William Shakespeare
Dying is a very dull, dreary affair. My advice to you is to have nothing whatever to do with it.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
The Sea of Galilee and the Dead Sea are made of the same water. It flows down, clean and cool, from the heights of Herman and the roots of the cedars of Lebanon. the Sea of Galilee makes beauty of it, the Sea of Galilee has an outlet. It gets to give. It gathers in its riches that it may pour them out again to fertilize the Jordan plain. But the Dead Sea with the same water makes horror. For the Dead Sea has no outlet. It gets to keep.
Fosdick, Harry Emerson
When you lose someone you love, you die too, and you wait around for your body to catch up.
John Scalzi
To die is landing on some distant shore.
Dryden, John
Dying is a wild night and a new road.
Dickinson, Emily
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
Is there a life after death? Can I never get some peace?
Kocher, Gerhard
'Tis after death that we measure men.
Hope, James Barron
Death is nothing to us, since when we are, death has not come, and when death has come, we are not.
Epicurus
Lord, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is; that I may know how frail I am. [Psalms 39:4]
Bible
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. [Psalm 23:4]
Bible
I will be conquered; I will not capitulate.
Johnson, Samuel
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
Many people die at twenty five and aren't buried until they are seventy five.
Franklin, Benjamin
The life of the dead is placed in the memory of the living.
Cicero, Marcus T.
We all have to die some day, if we live long enough.
Farber, Dave
Only those are fit to live who are not afraid to die.
Macarthur, Douglas
Only the young die good.
Herford, Oliver
I'm afraid I'm being an awful nuisance.
Edith Sitwell
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
Madam, Life's a piece in bloom death goes dogging everywhere: She's the tenant of the room he's the ruffian on the stair.
Henley, William Ernest
The infant runs toward it with its eyes closed, the adult is stationary, the old man approaches it with his back turned.
Diderot, Denis
The course of my long life hath reached at last in fragile bark over a tempestuous sea the common harbor, where must rendered be account for all the actions of the past.
Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth
Let death be daily before your eyes, and you will never entertain any abject thought, nor too eagerly covet anything.
Epictetus
