Motivational Quotes
Death
I really wanted to die at certain periods in my life. Death was like love, a romantic escape. I took pills because I didn't want to throw myself off my balcony and know people would photograph me lying dead below.
Best Quotes about Death
To die is poignantly bitter, but the idea of having to die without having lived is unbearable.
Fromm, Erich
We should weep for men at their birth, not at their death.
Montesquieu, Charles De
Many people die at twenty five and aren't buried until they are seventy five.
Franklin, Benjamin
Is it sin to rush into the secret house of death, ere death dare come to us?
William Shakespeare
It is not death, but dying, which is terrible.
Fielding, Henry
Every man must do two things alone; he must do his own believing and his own dying.
Luther, Martin
'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
It is simply untrue that all our institutions are evil that all politicians are mere opportunists, that all aspects of university life are corrupt. Having discovered an illness, it's not terribly useful to prescribe death as a cure.
Mcgovern, George
The last suit that you wear, you don't need any pockets.
Dyer, Wayne
To you who have never died, may I say: Welcome to the world!
Barker, Clive
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
There will be no lasting peace either in the heart of individuals or in social customs until death is outlawed.
Camus, Albert
Pale death with an impartial foot knocks at the hovels of the poor and the palaces of king.
Horace
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
The life of the dead is placed in the memory of the living.
Cicero, Marcus T.
As men, we are all equal in the presence of death.
Publilius Syrus
Death is someone you see very clearly with eyes in the center of your heart: eyes that see not by reacting to light, but by reacting to a kind of a chill from within the marrow of your own life.
Merton, Thomas
Plan for this world as if you expect to live forever; but plan for the hereafter as if you expect to die tomorrow.
Gabirol, Ibn
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
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
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
And what the dead had no speech for, when living, they can tell you, being dead: the communication of the dead is tongued with fire beyond the language of the living.
Eliot, T. S.
All that tread, the globe are but a handful to the tribes, that slumber in its bosom.
Bryant, William C.
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
When I pass, speak freely of my shortcomings and my flaws. Learn from them, for I'll have no ego to injure.
Aaron McGruder
The grave's a fine and private place, but none, I think, do there embrace.
Marvell, Andrew
When we die, no one remembers us for what we weighed. Our weight isn't etched into our headstones.
Stephanie Klein
There is some comfort in dying surrounded by one's children.
Ann Radcliffe
Death is not the worst; rather, in vain To wish for death, and not to compass it.
Sophocles
Pale Death with impartial tread beats at the poor man's cottage door and at the palaces of kings.
Horace
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
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
Death is the final wake-up call.
Horton, Doug
To die is landing on some distant shore.
Dryden, John
A dying man needs to die, as a sleepy man needs to sleep, and there comes a time when it is wrong, as well as useless, to resist.
Alsop, Steward
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
If life must not be taken too seriously -- then so neither must death.
Butler, Samuel
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
The killing was the best part. It was the dying I couldn't take.
Craig Volk
He whom the Gods love dies young, while he is in health, has his senses and his judgments sound.
Plautus, Titus Maccius
If a man hasn't discovered something that he will die for, he isn't fit to live.
King Jr. Martin Luther
A few can touch the magic string, and noisy fame is proud to win them: Alas for those that never sing, but die with all their music in them!
Holmes, Oliver Wendell
He had been, he said, an unconscionable time dying; but he hoped that they would excuse it.
Charles II
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
The world is the mirror of myself dying.
Miller, Henry
Do not fear death so much, but rather the inadequate life.
Bertolt Brecht
When one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language.
Donne, John
Yet nightly pitch my moving tent, a day's march nearer home.
Montgomery, James
How strange this fear of death is! We are never frightened at a sunset.
Macdonald, George
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
