Motivational Quotes
Death
There will be no lasting peace either in the heart of individuals or in social customs until death is outlawed.
Best Quotes about Death
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
I'm trying to die correctly, but it's very difficult, you know.
Durrell, Lawrence
Loss and possession, Death and life are one. There falls no shadow where There shines no sun.
Belloc, Hilaire
Men are convinced of your arguments, your sincerity, and the seriousness of your efforts only by your death.
Camus, Albert
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
If life must not be taken too seriously -- then so neither must death.
Butler, Samuel
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
Do not fear death so much, but rather the inadequate life.
Bertolt Brecht
Not by lamentations and mournful chants ought we to celebrate the funeral of a good man, but by hymns, for in ceasing to be numbered with mortals he enters upon the heritage of a diviner life.
Plutarch
Death is feared as birth is forgotten.
Horton, Doug
One has to pay dearly for immortality; one has to die several times while one is still alive.
Nietzsche, Friedrich
Teach me to live that I may dread, the grave as little as my bed.
Ken, Thomas
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.
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
For 'Tis not in mere death that men die most.
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett
I warmed both hands before the fire of life; It sinks, and I am ready to depart.
Landor, Walter Savage
A physician can sometimes parry the scythe of death, but has no power over the sand in the hourglass.
Thrale, Hester i
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
A useless life is an early death.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
Death is the liberator of him whom freedom cannot release, the physician of him whom medicine cannot cure, and the comforter of him whom time cannot console.
Colton, Charles Caleb
To be born free is an accident; To live free a responsibility; To die free is an obligation.
Davis, Mrs Hubbard
Land and sea, weakness and decline are great separators, but death is the great divorcer for ever.
Keats, John
Let us beware of saying that death is the opposite of life. The living being is only a species of the dead, and a very rare species.
Nietzsche, Friedrich
Every man must do two things alone; he must do his own believing and his own dying.
Luther, Martin
There are worse things in life than death. Have you ever spent an evening with an insurance salesman?
Woody Allen
O how small a portion of earth will hold us when we are dead, who ambitiously seek after the whole world while we are living.
Philip II
To a father, when a child dies, the future dies; to a child when a parent dies, the past dies.
Auerbach, Red
I look upon death to be as necessary to our constitution as sleep. We shall rise refreshed in the morning.
Franklin, Benjamin
To awake from death is to die in peace.
Horton, Doug
We are but tenants and shortly the great landlord will give us notice that our lease has expired.
Jefferson, Joseph
So that he seemed not to relinquish life, but to leave one home for another.
Nepos, Cornelius
The world is the mirror of myself dying.
Miller, Henry
I am not the least afraid to die.
Darwin, Charles R.
And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death. [New Testament]
Bible
All that tread, the globe are but a handful to the tribes, that slumber in its bosom.
Bryant, William C.
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
I never think he is quite ready for another world who is altogether weary of this.
Hamilton, Hugh
On the plus side, death is one of the few things that can be done just as easily as lying down.
Allen, Woody
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.
Life is one of the most important causes of death.
Kocher, Gerhard
The pomp of death is far more terrible than death itself.
Lee, Nathaniel
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
'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
There's a strange sort of quiet when you're dying. It's as if you're in a glass room, and the walls keep getting thicker and thicker.
Gabrielle Zevin
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
Living is death; dying is life. We are not what we appear to be. On this side of the grave we are exiles, on that citizens; on this side orphans, on that children;
Beecher, Henry Ward
To stop sinning suddenly.
Hubbard, Elbert
Against self-slaughter there is a prohibition so divine that cravens my weak hand.
William Shakespeare
Death doesn't frighten me.
Diana, Princess of Wales
Life is the desert, life the solitude, death joins us to the great majority.
Young, Edward
