Death

Not by lamentations and mournful chants ought we to celebrate the funeral of a good man, but by hymns, for in ceasing to be numbered with mortals he enters upon the heritage of a diviner life.
- Plutarch
Death Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Death

1.
I'm not afraid of death but I am afraid of dying. Pain can be alleviated by morphine but the pain of social ostracism cannot be taken away.
Jarman, Derek

2.
At birth man is offered only one choice --the choice of his death. But if this choice is governed by distaste for his own existence, his life will never have been more than meaningless.
Melville, Jean-Pierre

3.
When a great man dies, for years the light he leaves behind him, lies on the paths of men.
Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth

4.
If some persons died, and others did not die, death would be a terrible affliction.
La Bruyere, Jean De

5.
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

6.
Death has but one terror, that it has no tomorrow.
Hoffer, Eric

7.
I never wanted to see anybody die, but there are a few obituary notices I have read with pleasure.
Darrow, Clarence

8.
Let no man fear to die, we love to sleep all, and death is but the sounder sleep.
Beaumont, Francis

9.
He whom the Gods love dies young, while he is in health, has his senses and his judgments sound.
Plautus, Titus Maccius

10.
If I could drop dead right now, I'd be the happiest man alive.
Samuel Goldwyn

11.
It is difficult to accept death in this society because it is unfamiliar. In spite of the fact that it happens all the time, we never see it.
KuBler-Ross, Elisabeth

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

14.
Do not fear death so much, but rather the inadequate life.
Bertolt Brecht

15.
I have a piece of great and sad news to tell you: I am dead.
Cocteau, Jean

16.
These have not the hope to die.
Dante Alighieri

17.
Is there a life after death? Can I never get some peace?
Kocher, Gerhard

18.
Dying is a wild night and a new road.
Dickinson, Emily

19.
Dying is something we human beings do continuously, not just at the end of our physical lives on this earth.
KuBler-Ross, Elisabeth

20.
I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the darkness at Tannhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.
Hauer, Rutger

21.
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

22.
At death we cross from one territory to another, but we'll have no trouble with visas. Our representative is already there, preparing for our arrival. As citizens of heaven, our entrance is incontestable.
Lutzer, Erwin W.

23.
Death is a displaced name for a linguistic predicament.
Man, Paul De

24.
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

25.
Let us beware of saying that death is the opposite of life. The living being is only a species of the dead, and a very rare species.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

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

27.
Unquiet souls. In the dark fermentation of earth, in the never idle workshop of nature, in the eternal movement, yea shall find yourselves again.
Arnold, Matthew

28.
To be born free is an accident; To live free a responsibility; To die free is an obligation.
Davis, Mrs Hubbard

29.
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

30.
A man should not leave this earth with unfinished business. He should live each day as if it was a pre-flight check. He should ask each morning, am I prepared to lift-off?
Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider

31.
A physician can sometimes parry the scythe of death, but has no power over the sand in the hourglass.
Thrale, Hester i

32.
Life is one of the most important causes of death.
Kocher, Gerhard

33.
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

34.
As men, we are all equal in the presence of death.
Publilius Syrus

35.
I will be conquered; I will not capitulate.
Johnson, Samuel

36.
Between my head and my hand, there is always the face of death.
Picabia, Francis

37.
Like pilgrims to the appointed place we tend; The world's an inn, and death the journey's end.
Dryden, John

38.
Some dying men are the most tyrannical; and certainly, since they will shortly trouble us so little for evermore, the poor fellows ought to be indulged.
Melville, Herman

39.
To awake from death is to die in peace.
Horton, Doug

40.
I hope the leaving is joyful; and I hope never to return.
Frida Kahlo

41.
As for death one gets used to it, even if it's only other people's death you get used to.
Bagnold, Enid

42.
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

43.
A dead atheist is someone who is all dressed up with no place to go.
Duffecy, James

44.
Because I could not stop for death, He kindly stopped for me; The carriage held but just ourselves and immortality.
Dickinson, Emily

45.
Fish die belly upward, and rise to the surface. Its their way of falling.
Gide, Andre

46.
When death comes it is never our tenderness that we repent from, but our severity.
Eliot, George

47.
For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. [1 Timothy 6:7]
Bible

The fear of death is more to be dreaded than death itself.
Publilius Syrus

The pomp of death is far more terrible than death itself.
Lee, Nathaniel

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