- Bronte, Emily
Death Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Death

1.
'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

2.
In the attempt to defeat death man has been inevitably obliged to defeat life, for the two are inextricably related. Life moves on to death, and to deny one is to deny the other.
Miller, Henry

3.
The only religious way to think of death is as part and parcel of life.
Mann, Thomas

4.
Die, my dear doctor! That's the last thing I shall do!
Palmerston, Lord

5.
There is some comfort in dying surrounded by one's children.
Ann Radcliffe

6.
To awake from death is to die in peace.
Horton, Doug

7.
The Sea of Galilee and the Dead Sea are made of the same water. It flows down, clean and cool, from the heights of Herman and the roots of the cedars of Lebanon. the Sea of Galilee makes beauty of it, the Sea of Galilee has an outlet. It gets to give. It gathers in its riches that it may pour them out again to fertilize the Jordan plain. But the Dead Sea with the same water makes horror. For the Dead Sea has no outlet. It gets to keep.
Fosdick, Harry Emerson

8.
Despise not death, but welcome it, for nature wills it like all else.
Aurelius, Marcus

9.
The gods conceal from men the happiness of death, that they may endure life.
Lucan, F. L.

10.
He had been, he said, an unconscionable time dying; but he hoped that they would excuse it.
Charles II

11.
We all have to die some day, if we live long enough.
Farber, Dave

12.
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

13.
Must not all things at the last be swallowed up in death?
Plato

14.
Pale Death with impartial tread beats at the poor man's cottage door and at the palaces of kings.
Horace

15.
I suppose that I shall have to die beyond my means.
Oscar Wilde

16.
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

17.
I hope the leaving is joyful; and I hope never to return.
Frida Kahlo

18.
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

19.
The dead should be judged like criminals, impartially, but they should be allowed the benefit of the doubt.
Butler, Samuel

20.
Living is death; dying is life. We are not what we appear to be. On this side of the grave we are exiles, on that citizens; on this side orphans, on that children;
Beecher, Henry Ward

21.
Death always waits. The door of the hearse is never closed.
Bayly, Joseph

22.
Life, in my estimation, is a biological misadventure that we terminate on the shoulders of six strange men whose only objective is to make a hole in one with you.
Allen, Fred A.

23.
Is it sin to rush into the secret house of death, ere death dare come to us?
William Shakespeare

24.
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

25.
It is hard to have patience with people who say There is no death or Death doesn't matter. There is death. And whatever is matters. And whatever happens has consequences, and it and they are irrevocable and irreversible. You might as well say that birth doesn't matter.
Lewis, C. S.

26.
Death is not the worst; rather, in vain To wish for death, and not to compass it.
Sophocles

27.
We all of us waited for him to die. The family sent him a check every month, and hoped he'd get on with it quietly, without too much vulgar fuss.
Osborne, John

28.
Woe, woe, woe... in a little while we shall all be dead. Therefore let us behave as though we were dead already.
Chandler, Raymond

29.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep.
Frost, Robert

30.
To be born free is an accident; To live free a responsibility; To die free is an obligation.
Davis, Mrs Hubbard

31.
He would make a lovely corpse.
Dickens, Charles

32.
To die is landing on some distant shore.
Dryden, John

33.
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

34.
It is not death that alarms me, but dying.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

35.
He has gone over to the majority.
Petronius

36.
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

37.
The words of a dead man are modified in the guts of the living.
Auden, W. H.

38.
Land and sea, weakness and decline are great separators, but death is the great divorcer for ever.
Keats, John

39.
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

40.
One should die proudly when it is no longer possible to live proudly.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

41.
For 'Tis not in mere death that men die most.
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett

42.
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

43.
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

44.
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

45.
And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death. [New Testament]
Bible

46.
We all labor against our own cure, for death is the cure of all diseases.
Browne, Sir Thomas

47.
To stop sinning suddenly.
Hubbard, Elbert

48.
To leave is to die a little... one leaves behind a little of oneself at any hour, at any place.
Haracourt, Edmond

49.
There is no such thing as death. In nature nothing dies. From each sad remnant of decay, some forms of life arise so shall his life be taken away before he knoweth that he hath it.
Mackay, Charles

50.
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
