Motivational Quotes
Death
Because I could not stop for death, He kindly stopped for me; The carriage held but just ourselves and immortality.
Best Quotes about Death
The gods conceal from men the happiness of death, that they may endure life.
Lucan, F. L.
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
Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life.
Steve Jobs
'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
Death is the last enemy: once we've got past that I think everything will be alright.
Ellis, Alice Thomas
He has gone over to the majority.
Petronius
Let us go in; the fog is rising.
Dickinson, Emily
We sometimes congratulate ourselves at the moment of waking from a troubled dream; it may be so the moment after death.
Hawthorne, Nathaniel
We begin to die as soon as we are born, and the end is linked to the beginning.
Manilius, Marcus
As a well-spent day brings happy sleep, so life well used brings happy death.
Leonardo da Vinci
One has to pay dearly for immortality; one has to die several times while one is still alive.
Nietzsche, Friedrich
He that lives to forever, never fears dying.
Penn, William
As death, when we come to consider it closely, is the true goal of our existence, I have formed during the last few years such close relations with this best and truest friend of mankind, that his image is not only no longer terrifying to me, but is indeed very soothing and consoling! And I thank my God for graciously granting me the opportunity of learning that death is the key which unlocks the door to our true happiness.
Mozart, Wolfgang Amadeus
To leave is to die a little... one leaves behind a little of oneself at any hour, at any place.
Haracourt, Edmond
Every man is born as many men and dies as a single one.
Heidegger, Martin
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
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 the great adventure beside which moon landings and space trips pale into insignificance.
Bayly, Joseph
Fish die belly upward, and rise to the surface. Its their way of falling.
Gide, Andre
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
Plan for this world as if you expect to live forever; but plan for the hereafter as if you expect to die tomorrow.
Gabirol, Ibn
Each in his narrow cell for ever laid, the rude forefathers of the hamlet sleep.
Gray, Thomas
Death is a delightful hiding place for weary men.
Herodotus
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
When death comes it is never our tenderness that we repent from, but our severity.
Eliot, George
When a great man dies, for years the light he leaves behind him, lies on the paths of men.
Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth
On the plus side, death is one of the few things that can be done just as easily as lying down.
Allen, Woody
Do not fear death so much, but rather the inadequate life.
Bertolt Brecht
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
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
'Tis after death that we measure men.
Hope, James Barron
Man that is born of woman hath but a short time to live, and is full of misery. He comet up, and is cut down, like a flower; he fleeth as it were a shadow, and never continueth in one stay.
Book Of Common Prayer
Pale Death with impartial tread beats at the poor man's cottage door and at the palaces of kings.
Horace
A useless life is an early death.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
There was something awesome in the thought of the solitary mortal standing by the open window and summoning in from the gloom outside the spirits of the nether world.
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
Never knock on Death's door: ring the bell and run away! Death really hates that!
Matt Frewer
The words of a dead man are modified in the guts of the living.
Auden, W. H.
Life is one of the most important causes of death.
Kocher, Gerhard
The fear of death is more to be dreaded than death itself.
Publilius Syrus
Death destroys a man, the idea of Death saves him.
Forster, Edward M.
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
Death, so called, is a thing which makes men weep, and yet a third of life is passed in sleep.
Byron, Lord
It is not death, but dying, which is terrible.
Fielding, Henry
The dead cannot cry out for justice; it is a duty of the living to do so for them.
Lois McMaster Bujold
As we look deeply within, we understand our perfect balance. There is no fear of the cycle of birth, life and death. For when you stand in the present moment, you are timeless.
Rodney Yee
We all have to die some day, if we live long enough.
Farber, Dave
Since the death instinct exists in the heart of everything that lives, since we suffer from trying to repress it, since everything that lives longs for rest, let us unfasten the ties that bind us to life, let us cultivate our death wish, let us develop it, water it like a plant, let it grow unhindered. Suffering and fear are born from the repression of the death wish.
Ionesco, Eugene
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
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
Loss and possession, Death and life are one. There falls no shadow where There shines no sun.
Belloc, Hilaire
