Death

We are but tenants and shortly the great landlord will give us notice that our lease has expired.
- Jefferson, Joseph
Death Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Death

1.
Nothing that is really good and God-like dies.
Arndt, Ernest Moritz

2.
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

3.
For days after death hair and fingernails continue to grow, but phone calls taper off.
Carson, Johnny

4.
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

5.
It is impossible to experience one's death objectively and still carry a tune.
Woody Allen

6.
If we really think that home is elsewhere and that this life is a wandering to find home, why should we not look forward to the arrival?
Lewis, C. S.

7.
It's no accident that the church and the graveyard stand side by side. The city of the dead sleeps encircled by the city of the living.
Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider

8.
Never knock on Death's door: ring the bell and run away! Death really hates that!
Matt Frewer

9.
Against self-slaughter there is a prohibition so divine that cravens my weak hand.
William Shakespeare

10.
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

11.
And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. [Matthew 10:28]
Bible

12.
Die when I may, I want it said of me by those who knew me best, that I always plucked a thistle and planted a flower where I thought a flower would grow.
Lincoln, Abraham

13.
Death destroys a man, the idea of Death saves him.
Forster, Edward M.

14.
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

15.
That last day does not bring extinction to us, but change of place.
Cicero, Marcus T.

16.
I have seen a thousand graves opened, and always perceived that whatever was gone, the teeth and hair remained of those who had died with them. Is not this odd? They go the very first things in youth and yet last the longest in the dust.
Byron, Lord

17.
How strange this fear of death is! We are never frightened at a sunset.
Macdonald, George

18.
Dying is something we human beings do continuously, not just at the end of our physical lives on this earth.
KuBler-Ross, Elisabeth

19.
The words of a dead man are modified in the guts of the living.
Auden, W. H.

20.
Either he's dead or my watch has stopped.
Marx, Groucho

21.
Along with the lazy man... the dying man is the immoral man: the former, a subject that does not work; the latter, an object that no longer even makes itself available to be worked on by others.
Certeau, Michel De

22.
I do not believe that any man fears to be dead, but only the stroke of death.
Bacon, Francis

23.
I hope the leaving is joyful; and I hope never to return.
Frida Kahlo

24.
If you don't know how to die, don't worry; Nature will tell you what to do on the spot, fully and adequately. She will do this job perfectly for you; don't bother your head about it.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

25.
I really wanted to die at certain periods in my life. Death was like love, a romantic escape. I took pills because I didn't want to throw myself off my balcony and know people would photograph me lying dead below.
Bardot, Brigitte

26.
Each in his narrow cell for ever laid, the rude forefathers of the hamlet sleep.
Gray, Thomas

27.
Most of us die with much of our beautiful music still in us, un-sung, un-played.
Bright, Grant M.

28.
Death is a delightful hiding place for weary men.
Herodotus

29.
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

30.
We begin to die as soon as we are born, and the end is linked to the beginning.
Manilius, Marcus

31.
I'm not afraid to die, I just don't want to be there when it happens.
Allen, Woody

32.
Loss and possession, Death and life are one. There falls no shadow where There shines no sun.
Belloc, Hilaire

33.
Death is the dropping of the flower that the fruit may swell.
Beecher, Henry Ward

34.
The grave's a fine and private place, but none, I think, do there embrace.
Marvell, Andrew

35.
There is nothing which at once affects a man so much and so little as his own death.
Butler, Samuel

36.
I'm afraid I'm being an awful nuisance.
Edith Sitwell

37.
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

38.
It is impossible that anything so natural, so necessary, and so universal as death, should ever have been designed by Providence as an evil to mankind.
Jonathan Swift

39.
Death is delightful. Death is dawn, the waking from a weary night of fevers unto truth and light.
Miller, Joaquin

40.
I am ready to meet my maker, but whether my maker is prepared for the great ordeal of meeting me is another matter.
Churchill, Winston

41.
He would make a lovely corpse.
Dickens, Charles

42.
I will be conquered; I will not capitulate.
Johnson, Samuel

43.
Death is as sure for that which is born, as birth is for that which is dead. Therefore grieve not for what is inevitable.
Bhagavad Gita

44.
Dying is a very dull, dreary affair. My advice to you is to have nothing whatever to do with it.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

45.
Every man is born as many men and dies as a single one.
Heidegger, Martin

46.
He whom the Gods love dies young, while he is in health, has his senses and his judgments sound.
Plautus, Titus Maccius

47.
Remember man as you walk by, as you are now so once was I, as I am now, so you will be, so prepare for death and follow me.
Epitaph

48.
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

49.
Death is feared as birth is forgotten.
Horton, Doug

50.
The art of living well and the art of dying well are one.
Epicurus
