Death

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.

He who is obsessed by death is made guilty by it.
Canetti, Elias

'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

13.
We are all of us resigned to death: it's life we aren't resigned to.
Greene, Graham

14.
Death is a displaced name for a linguistic predicament.
Man, Paul De

15.
It is as natural to die as to be born; and to a little infant, perhaps, the one is as painful as the other.
Bacon, Francis

Think not disdainfully of death, but look on it with favor; for even death is one of the things that Nature wills.
Marcus Aurelius Antoninus

Unquiet souls. In the dark fermentation of earth, in the never idle workshop of nature, in the eternal movement, yea shall find yourselves again.
Arnold, Matthew

18.

Yet nightly pitch my moving tent, a day's march nearer home.
Montgomery, James

20.
The pomp of death is far more terrible than death itself.
Lee, Nathaniel

Rodney Yee

29.
The only religious way to think of death is as part and parcel of life.
Mann, Thomas

30.
Few cross the river of time and are able to reach non-being. Most of them run up and down only on this side of the river. But those who when they know the law follow the path of the law, they shall reach the other shore and go beyond the realm of death.
Dhammapada

31.
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

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

There are worse things in life than death. Have you ever spent an evening with an insurance salesman?

That last day does not bring extinction to us, but change of place.
