Motivational Quotes
Death
I guess that's how death works. It doesn't matter if we're ready or not. It just happens.
Best Quotes about Death
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
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
Living is a sickness to which sleep provides relief every sixteen hours. It's a palliative. The remedy is death.
Chamfort, Sebastien-Roch Nicolas De
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
There is left us ourselves to end ourselves.
William Shakespeare
Death is better, a milder fate than tyranny.
Aeschylus
As death, when we come to consider it closely, is the true goal of our existence, I have formed during the last few years such close relations with this best and truest friend of mankind, that his image is not only no longer terrifying to me, but is indeed very soothing and consoling! And I thank my God for graciously granting me the opportunity of learning that death is the key which unlocks the door to our true happiness.
Mozart, Wolfgang Amadeus
Personally I have no bone to pick with graveyards, I take the air there willingly, perhaps more willingly than elsewhere, when take the air I must.
Beckett, Samuel
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
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
A person doesn't die when he should but when he can.
Marquez, Gabriel Garcia
The last suit that you wear, you don't need any pockets.
Dyer, Wayne
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.
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
So that he seemed not to relinquish life, but to leave one home for another.
Nepos, Cornelius
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
There is no death. the stars go down to rise upon some other shore. And bright in Heaven's jeweled crown, they shine for ever more.
Mccreery, John Luckey
To stop sinning suddenly.
Hubbard, Elbert
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.
Gabrielle Zevin
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
The world is the mirror of myself dying.
Miller, Henry
Death is a release from the impressions of the senses, and from desires that make us their puppets, and from the vagaries of the mind, and from the hard service of the flesh.
Aurelius, Marcus
Loss and possession, Death and life are one. There falls no shadow where There shines no sun.
Belloc, Hilaire
Only the young die good.
Herford, Oliver
The fear of death is worse than death.
Burton, Robert
Death is a displaced name for a linguistic predicament.
Man, Paul De
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
I look upon death to be as necessary to our constitution as sleep. We shall rise refreshed in the morning.
Franklin, Benjamin
Any relic of the dead is precious, if they were valued living.
Bronte, Emily
The pride of dying rich raises the loudest laugh in hell.
Foster, John W.
If life must not be taken too seriously -- then so neither must death.
Butler, Samuel
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.
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
It's sad when our daddies die. Makes us one less person inside.
Pamela Ribon
Between my head and my hand, there is always the face of death.
Picabia, Francis
If I could drop dead right now, I'd be the happiest man alive.
Samuel Goldwyn
But life is sweet, though all that makes it sweet. Lessen like sound of friends departing feet; And death is beautiful as feet of friend. Coming with welcome at our journey's end.
Lowell, James Russell
It is natural to die as to be born.
Bacon, Francis
Our dead are never dead to us, until we have forgotten them.
Eliot, George
To you who have never died, may I say: Welcome to the world!
Barker, Clive
Because of its tremendous solemnity death is the light in which great passions, both good and bad, become transparent, no longer limited by outward appearances.
Kierkegaard, SĀ°ren
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
Life is the jailer, death the angel sent to draw the unwilling bolts and set us free.
Lowell, James Russell
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
If you live to be one hundred, you've got it made. Very few people die past that age.
George Burns
Death is more universal than life; everyone dies but not everyone lives.
A. Sachs
I am going to concentrate on what's important in life. I'm going to strive everyday to be a kind and generous and loving person. I'm going to keep death right here, so that anytime I even think about getting angry at you or anybody else, I'll see death and I'll remember.
Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider
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
When we die, no one remembers us for what we weighed. Our weight isn't etched into our headstones.
Stephanie Klein
Death is not the worst; rather, in vain To wish for death, and not to compass it.
Sophocles
