The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep.
Best Quotes about Death

Fromm, Erich

Epicurus
There is no death. the stars go down to rise upon some other shore. And bright in Heaven's jeweled crown, they shine for ever more.
Mccreery, John Luckey

Bonaparte, Napoleon
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 killing was the best part. It was the dying I couldn't take.
Craig Volk
Do not fear death so much, but rather the inadequate life.
Bertolt Brecht
Death doesn't affect the living because it has not happened yet. Death doesn't concern the dead because they have ceased to exist.
Maugham, W. Somerset
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 look upon death to be as necessary to our constitution as sleep. We shall rise refreshed in the morning.
Franklin, Benjamin
A human act once set in motion flows on forever to the great account. Our deathlessness is in what we do, not in what we are.
Meredith, George
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
In the attempt to defeat death man has been inevitably obliged to defeat life, for the two are inextricably related. Life moves on to death, and to deny one is to deny the other.
Miller, Henry
The dead look so terribly dead when they're dead.
W. Somerset Maugham
I'm not afraid to die, I just don't want to be there when it happens.
Allen, Woody
We all labor against our own cure, for death is the cure of all diseases.
Browne, Sir Thomas
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
He would make a lovely corpse.
Dickens, Charles
For three days after death hair and fingernails continue to grow but phone calls taper off.
Johnny Carson
Only those are fit to live who are not afraid to die.
Macarthur, Douglas
Oh you who have been removed from God in his solitude by the abyss of time, how can you expect to reach him without dying?
Hallaj
Death never takes the wise man by surprise, he is always ready to go.
La Fontaine, Jean De
The grave's a fine and private place, but none, I think, do there embrace.
Marvell, Andrew
Since the day of my birth, my death began its walk. It is walking toward me, without hurrying.
Cocteau, Jean
Against self-slaughter there is a prohibition so divine that cravens my weak hand.
William Shakespeare
Despise not death, but welcome it, for nature wills it like all else.
Aurelius, Marcus
There will be no lasting peace either in the heart of individuals or in social customs until death is outlawed.
Camus, Albert
When I pass, speak freely of my shortcomings and my flaws. Learn from them, for I'll have no ego to injure.
Aaron McGruder
'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
Death, they say, acquits us of all obligations.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
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
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
Men are convinced of your arguments, your sincerity, and the seriousness of your efforts only by your death.
Camus, Albert
Death is not the worst; rather, in vain To wish for death, and not to compass it.
Sophocles
Each in his narrow cell for ever laid, the rude forefathers of the hamlet sleep.
Gray, Thomas
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
Perhaps the whole root of our trouble, the human trouble, is that we will sacrifice all the beauty of our lives, will imprison ourselves in totems, taboos, crosses, blood sacrifices, steeples, mosques, races, armies, flags, nations, in order to deny the fact of death, which is the only fact we have.
Baldwin, James
He whom the Gods love dies young, while he is in health, has his senses and his judgments sound.
Plautus, Titus Maccius
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
When one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language.
Donne, John
It hath often been said that it is not death but dying that is terrible.
Fielding, Henry
He had been, he said, an unconscionable time dying; but he hoped that they would excuse it.
Charles II
He was exhaled; his great Creator drew His spirit, as the sun the morning dew.
Dryden, John
It is impossible to experience one's death objectively and still carry a tune.
Woody Allen
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.
A dead atheist is someone who is all dressed up with no place to go.
Duffecy, James
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
Like pilgrims to the appointed place we tend; The world's an inn, and death the journey's end.
Dryden, John
When I die I want to decompose in a barrel of porter and have it served in all the pubs in Dublin.
Donleavy, J. P.
