Motivational Quotes
Death
Death is a commingling of eternity with time; in the death of a good man, eternity is seen looking through time.

Best Quotes about Death
Your body must become familiar with its death -- in all its possible forms and degrees -- as a self-evident, imminent, and emotionally neutral step on the way towards the goal you have found worthy of your life.
Hammarskjold, Dag
It is simply untrue that all our institutions are evil that all politicians are mere opportunists, that all aspects of university life are corrupt. Having discovered an illness, it's not terribly useful to prescribe death as a cure.
Mcgovern, George
But learn that to die is a debt we must all pay.
Euripides
A considerable percentage of the people we meet on the street are people who are empty inside, that is, they are actually already dead. It is fortunate for us that we do not see and do not know it. If we knew what a number of people are actually dead and what a number of these dead people govern our lives, we should go mad with horror.
Gurdjieff, George
Being prepared for loss is never the same as being ready for it.
Randy K. Milholland
O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? [1 Corinthians 15:55]
Bible
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
I'd rather die while I'm living then live while I'm dead.
Buffett, Jimmy
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.
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
Death can sneak up on you like a silent kitten, surprising you with it's touch and you have a right to act surprised. Other times death stomps in the front door, unwanted and unannounced, and makes it's noisy way to your seat on the sofa.
Hugh Elliott
When I have fears that I may cease to be, Before my pen has gleaned my teeming brain.
Keats, John
The essential part of our being can only survive if the transient part dissolves. Death is a condition of survival. That which has been gained must be eternalized, and can only be eternalized by being transmuted, by passing through death they must return
Khan, Pir Vilayat
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
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
Death is the last enemy: once we've got past that I think everything will be alright.
Ellis, Alice Thomas
I'm not afraid to die, I just don't want to be there when it happens.
Allen, Woody
A physician can sometimes parry the scythe of death, but has no power over the sand in the hourglass.
Thrale, Hester i
You must not fear death, my lads; defy him, and you drive him into the enemy's ranks.
Bonaparte, Napoleon
The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. [1 Corinthians 15:26]
Bible
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
Not by lamentations and mournful chants ought we to celebrate the funeral of a good man, but by hymns, for in ceasing to be numbered with mortals he enters upon the heritage of a diviner life.
Plutarch
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
Since the day of my birth, my death began its walk. It is walking toward me, without hurrying.
Cocteau, Jean
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
I shall not wholly die, and a great part of me will escape the grave.
Horace
The fear of death is more to be dreaded than death itself.
Publilius Syrus
The gods conceal from men the happiness of death, that they may endure life.
Lucan, F. L.
Death is the dropping of the flower that the fruit may swell.
Beecher, Henry Ward
Lord, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is; that I may know how frail I am. [Psalms 39:4]
Bible
As the waters fail from the sea, and the flood decayeth and drieth up: so man lieth down, and riseth not: till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep. [Job 14:11-12]
Bible
Pale Death with impartial tread beats at the poor man's cottage door and at the palaces of kings.
Horace
A dead atheist is someone who is all dressed up with no place to go.
Duffecy, James
Fish die belly upward, and rise to the surface. Its their way of falling.
Gide, Andre
We are not victims of aging, sickness and death. These are part of scenery, not the seer, who is immune to any form of change. This seer is the spirit, the expression of eternal being.
Chopra, Deepak
For certain is death for the born And certain is birth for the dead; Therefore over the inevitable Thou shouldst not grieve.
Bhagavad Gita
It is natural to die as to be born.
Bacon, Francis
Some dying men are the most tyrannical; and certainly, since they will shortly trouble us so little for evermore, the poor fellows ought to be indulged.
Melville, Herman
Death is the golden key that opens the palace of eternity.
Milton, John
To stop sinning suddenly.
Hubbard, Elbert
When one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language.
Donne, John
In the last analysis it is our conception of death which decides our answers to all the questions life puts to us.
Hammarskjold, Dag
The infant runs toward it with its eyes closed, the adult is stationary, the old man approaches it with his back turned.
Diderot, Denis
'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
To die is but to leave off dying and do the thing once for all.
Butler, Samuel
There will be no lasting peace either in the heart of individuals or in social customs until death is outlawed.
Camus, Albert
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
The art of living well and the art of dying well are one.
Epicurus
We all have to die some day, if we live long enough.
Farber, Dave
Nothing that is really good and God-like dies.
Arndt, Ernest Moritz
