Best Quotes about Death
Death has but one terror, that it has no tomorrow.
Hoffer, Eric
Death is a Dialogue between, the Spirit and the Dust.
Dickinson, Emily
Dying is a wild night and a new road.
Dickinson, Emily
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
Well, there's a remedy for all things but death, which will be sure to lay us flat one time or other.
Cervantes, Miguel De
Death is but a passage. It is not a house, it is only a vestibule. The grave has a door on its inner side.
Maclaren, Alexander
For days after death hair and fingernails continue to grow, but phone calls taper off.
Carson, Johnny
On the plus side, death is one of the few things that can be done just as easily lying down.
Woody Allen
Let us go in; the fog is rising.
Dickinson, Emily
He has gone over to the majority.
Petronius
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
For certain is death for the born And certain is birth for the dead; Therefore over the inevitable Thou shouldst not grieve.
Bhagavad Gita
The grave's a fine and private place, but none, I think, do there embrace.
Marvell, Andrew
To die is but to leave off dying and do the thing once for all.
Butler, Samuel
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
The call of death is a call of love. Death can be sweet if we answer it in the affirmative, if we accept it as one of the great eternal forms of life and transformation.
Hesse, Hermann
Is there a life after death? Can I never get some peace?
Kocher, Gerhard
I hope the leaving is joyful; and I hope never to return.
Frida Kahlo
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
Death is a commingling of eternity with time; in the death of a good man, eternity is seen looking through time.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
Life is a loss of time.
Kocher, Gerhard
For three days after death hair and fingernails continue to grow but phone calls taper off.
Johnny Carson
Death is the last enemy: once we've got past that I think everything will be alright.
Ellis, Alice Thomas
It is natural to die as to be born.
Bacon, Francis
Death is feared as birth is forgotten.
Horton, Doug
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
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
Always go to other people's funerals, otherwise they won't come to yours.
Berra, Yogi
The infant runs toward it with its eyes closed, the adult is stationary, the old man approaches it with his back turned.
Diderot, Denis
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
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
The world is the mirror of myself dying.
Miller, Henry
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
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. [Psalm 23:4]
Bible
And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death. [New Testament]
Bible
We begin to die as soon as we are born, and the end is linked to the beginning.
Manilius, Marcus
Death be not proud, though some have called thee Mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so. For, those, whom thou think'st thou dost overthrow. Die not, poor death, nor yet canst thou kill me.
Donne, John
On the plus side, death is one of the few things that can be done just as easily as lying down.
Allen, Woody
The death of what's dead is the birth of what's living.
Guthrie, Arlo
We sometimes congratulate ourselves at the moment of waking from a troubled dream; it may be so the moment after death.
Hawthorne, Nathaniel
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
The fear of death is worse than death.
Burton, Robert
To die is landing on some distant shore.
Dryden, John
We should weep for men at their birth, not at their death.
Montesquieu, Charles De
Men are convinced of your arguments, your sincerity, and the seriousness of your efforts only by your death.
Camus, Albert
But there is good news yet to hear and fine things to be seen before we go to Paradise by way of Kensal Green.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.
Life is one of the most important causes of death.
Kocher, Gerhard
Death is the king of this world: 'Tis his park where he breeds life to feed him. Cries of pain are music for his banquet
Eliot, George
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
Our repugnance to death increases in proportion to our consciousness of having lived in vain.
Hazlitt, William
