Death Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Death

1.
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

2.
I want death to find me planting my cabbage
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

3.
Is it sin to rush into the secret house of death, ere death dare come to us?
William Shakespeare

4.
The gods conceal from men the happiness of death, that they may endure life.
Lucan, F. L.

5.
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

6.
What did it matter where you lay once you were dead? In a dirty sump or in a marble tower on top of a high hill? You were dead, you were sleeping the big sleep, you were not bothered by things like that. Oil and water were the same as wind and air to you.
Chandler, Raymond

7.
It is not death, but dying, which is terrible.
Fielding, Henry

8.
As for death one gets used to it, even if it's only other people's death you get used to.
Bagnold, Enid

9.
Let us go in; the fog is rising.
Dickinson, Emily

10.
Death is delightful. Death is dawn, the waking from a weary night of fevers unto truth and light.
Miller, Joaquin

11.
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

12.
I hate funerals and would not attend my own if it could be avoided, but it is well for every man to stop once in a while to think of what sort of a collection of mourners he is training for his final event.
Morris, Robert T.

13.
He whom the Gods love dies young, while he is in health, has his senses and his judgments sound.
Plautus, Titus Maccius

14.
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

15.
Our dead brothers still live for us and bid us think of life, not death -- of life to which in their youth they lent the passion and glory of Spring. As I listen, the great chorus of life and joy begins again, and amid the awful orchestra of seen and unseen powers and destinies of good and evil, our trumpets, sound once more a note of daring, hope, and will.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

16.
'Tis after death that we measure men.
Hope, James Barron

17.
Be open to your dreams, people. Embrace that distant shore. Because our mortal journey is over all too soon.
David Assael

18.
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

19.
To die is but to leave off dying and do the thing once for all.
Butler, Samuel

20.
One has to pay dearly for immortality; one has to die several times while one is still alive.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

21.
For the sword outwears its sheath, and the soul wears out the breast. And the heart must pause to breathe, and love itself have rest.
Byron, Lord

22.
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

23.
Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His godly ones. [Psalms 116:15]
Bible

24.
Death not merely ends life, it also bestows upon it a silent completeness, snatched from the hazardous flux to which all things human are subject.
Arendt, Hannah

25.
The pride of dying rich raises the loudest laugh in hell.
Foster, John W.

26.
I am not dying, not anymore than any of us are at any moment. We run, hopefully as fast as we can, and then everyone must stop. We can only choose how we handle the race.
Hugh Elliott

27.
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

28.
The difficulty about all this dying, is that you can't tell a fellow anything about it, so where does the fun come in?
James, Alice

29.
If I could drop dead right now, I'd be the happiest man alive.
Samuel Goldwyn

30.
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

31.
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

32.
For 'Tis not in mere death that men die most.
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett

33.
The death of what's dead is the birth of what's living.
Guthrie, Arlo

34.
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

35.
The dead should be judged like criminals, impartially, but they should be allowed the benefit of the doubt.
Butler, Samuel

36.
Yet nightly pitch my moving tent, a day's march nearer home.
Montgomery, James

37.
I am not the least afraid to die.
Darwin, Charles R.

38.
If you live to be one hundred, you've got it made. Very few people die past that age.
George Burns

39.
I look upon life as a gift from God. I did nothing to earn it. Now that the time is coming to give it back, I have no right to complain.
Cary, Joyce

40.
Creation destroys as it goes, throws down one tree for the rise of another. But ideal mankind would abolish death, multiply itself million upon million, rear up city upon city, save every parasite alive, until the accumulation of mere existence is swollen to a horror.
Lawrence, D. H.

41.
That last day does not bring extinction to us, but change of place.
Cicero, Marcus T.

42.
Every man is born as many men and dies as a single one.
Heidegger, Martin

43.
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

44.
Always go to other people's funerals, otherwise they won't come to yours.
Berra, Yogi

45.
When death comes it is never our tenderness that we repent from, but our severity.
Eliot, George

46.
Every man must do two things alone; he must do his own believing and his own dying.
Luther, Martin

47.
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

48.
In the last analysis it is our conception of death which decides our answers to all the questions life puts to us.
Hammarskjold, Dag

49.
One should die proudly when it is no longer possible to live proudly.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

50.
Death is the golden key that opens the palace of eternity.
Milton, John
