Death Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Death

1.
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

2.
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

3.
That last day does not bring extinction to us, but change of place.
Cicero, Marcus T.

He has gone over to the majority.
Petronius

5.
The words of a dead man are modified in the guts of the living.
Auden, W. H.

6.
Dying is a wild night and a new road.
Dickinson, Emily

7.
Perhaps the whole root of our trouble, the human trouble, is that we will sacrifice all the beauty of our lives, will imprison ourselves in totems, taboos, crosses, blood sacrifices, steeples, mosques, races, armies, flags, nations, in order to deny the fact of death, which is the only fact we have.
Baldwin, James

8.
There's a thing that keeps surprising you about stormy old friends after they die; their silence.
Becht, Ben

9.
I have a piece of great and sad news to tell you: I am dead.
Cocteau, Jean

10.
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

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

12.
There is nothing which at once affects a man so much and so little as his own death.
Butler, Samuel

13.
Death is the king of this world: 'Tis his park where he breeds life to feed him. Cries of pain are music for his banquet
Eliot, George

14.
On the plus side, death is one of the few things that can be done just as easily as lying down.
Allen, Woody

15.
It is as natural to die as to be born; and to a little infant, perhaps, the one is as painful as the other.
Bacon, Francis

16.
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

17.
Neither the sun nor death can be looked at with a steady eye
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

18.
As we look deeply within, we understand our perfect balance. There is no fear of the cycle of birth, life and death. For when you stand in the present moment, you are timeless.
Rodney Yee

19.
Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life.
Steve Jobs

20.
When one by one our ties are torn, and friend from friend is snatched forlorn; When man is left alone to mourn, oh! then how sweet it is to die!
Barbauld, Anna Letitia

21.
The world is the mirror of myself dying.
Miller, Henry

22.
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

23.
Our repugnance to death increases in proportion to our consciousness of having lived in vain.
Hazlitt, William

24.
He who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe is as good as dead; his eyes are closed.
Einstein, Albert

25.
He was exhaled; his great Creator drew His spirit, as the sun the morning dew.
Dryden, John

26.
Death is a commingling of eternity with time; in the death of a good man, eternity is seen looking through time.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

27.
To be born free is an accident; To live free a responsibility; To die free is an obligation.
Davis, Mrs Hubbard

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

30.
For days after death hair and fingernails continue to grow, but phone calls taper off.
Carson, Johnny

31.
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

32.
In the last analysis it is our conception of death which decides our answers to all the questions life puts to us.
Hammarskjold, Dag

33.
A dead atheist is someone who is all dressed up with no place to go.
Duffecy, James

34.
