Motivational Quotes
Death
When one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language.
Best Quotes about Death
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
But life is sweet, though all that makes it sweet. Lessen like sound of friends departing feet; And death is beautiful as feet of friend. Coming with welcome at our journey's end.
Lowell, James Russell
Life is a series of diminishments. Each cessation of an activity either from choice or some other variety of infirmity is a death, a putting to final rest. Each loss, of friend or precious enemy, can be equated with the closing off of a room containing blocks of nerves and soon after the closing off the nerves atrophy and that part of oneself, in essence, drops away. The self is lightened, is held on earth by a gram less of mass and will.
Dowell, Coleman
Die, my dear doctor! That's the last thing I shall do!
Palmerston, Lord
We should weep for men at their birth, not at their death.
Montesquieu, Charles De
Man has the possibility of existence after death. But possibility is one thing and the realization of the possibility is quite a different thing.
Gurdjieff, George
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
It is possible to provide security against other ills, but as far as death is concerned, we men all live in a city without walls.
Epicurus
Neither the sun nor death can be looked at with a steady eye
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De
I hope the leaving is joyful; and I hope never to return.
Frida Kahlo
Death destroys a man, the idea of Death saves him.
Forster, Edward M.
Dying is a wild night and a new road.
Dickinson, Emily
As men, we are all equal in the presence of death.
Publilius Syrus
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
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
And what the dead had no speech for, when living, they can tell you, being dead: the communication of the dead is tongued with fire beyond the language of the living.
Eliot, T. S.
Death is a delightful hiding place for weary men.
Herodotus
It is not death, but dying, which is terrible.
Fielding, Henry
I'm not afraid to die, I just don't want to be there when it happens.
Allen, Woody
The grave's a fine and private place, but none, I think, do there embrace.
Marvell, Andrew
When I die, I want people to play my music, go wild and freak out and do anything they want to do.
Hendrix, Jimi
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
Loss and possession, Death and life are one. There falls no shadow where There shines no sun.
Belloc, Hilaire
When death comes it is never our tenderness that we repent from, but our severity.
Eliot, George
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
We begin to die as soon as we are born, and the end is linked to the beginning.
Manilius, Marcus
Ignore death up to the last moment; then, when it can't be ignored any longer, have yourself squirted full of morphia and shuffle off in a coma. Thoroughly sensible, humane and scientific, eh?
Huxley, Aldous
There is nothing which at once affects a man so much and so little as his own death.
Butler, Samuel
He whom the Gods love dies young, while he is in health, has his senses and his judgments sound.
Plautus, Titus Maccius
The dead should be judged like criminals, impartially, but they should be allowed the benefit of the doubt.
Butler, Samuel
The Father is the Giver of Life; but the Mother is the Giver of Death, because her womb is the gate of ingress to matter, and through her life is ensouled to form, and no form can be either infinite or eternal. Death is implicit in birth.
Kabbalah
I'm not afraid of death but I am afraid of dying. Pain can be alleviated by morphine but the pain of social ostracism cannot be taken away.
Jarman, Derek
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
He would make a lovely corpse.
Dickens, Charles
If even dying is to be made a social function, then, grant me the favor of sneaking out on tiptoe without disturbing the party.
Hammarskjold, Dag
On the plus side, death is one of the few things that can be done just as easily lying down.
Woody Allen
Is there a life after death? Can I never get some peace?
Kocher, Gerhard
If you don't think your life is worth more than someone else's, sign your donor card and kill yourself now.
Matthew V. Lewis
Between my head and my hand, there is always the face of death.
Picabia, Francis
You haven't lost anything when you know were it is. Death can hide but not divide.
Havner, Vance
Land and sea, weakness and decline are great separators, but death is the great divorcer for ever.
Keats, John
If only I could understand the reason for my crying. If only I could stop this fear of dreaming that I'm dying.
Palmer, Laura
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
For three days after death hair and fingernails continue to grow but phone calls taper off.
Johnny Carson
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
Death is the enemy. I spent 10 years of my life singlemindedly studying, practicing, fighting hand to hand in close quarters to defeat the enemy, to send him back bloodied and humble and I am not going to roll over and surrender.
Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider
Woe, woe, woe... in a little while we shall all be dead. Therefore let us behave as though we were dead already.
Chandler, Raymond
I am going to concentrate on what's important in life. I'm going to strive everyday to be a kind and generous and loving person. I'm going to keep death right here, so that anytime I even think about getting angry at you or anybody else, I'll see death and I'll remember.
Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider
To die is but to leave off dying and do the thing once for all.
Butler, Samuel
We do not die because we have to die; we die because one day, and not so long ago, our consciousness was forced to deem it necessary.
Antonin Artaud
