Best Quotes about Death
The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. [1 Corinthians 15:26]
Bible
As men, we are all equal in the presence of death.
Publilius Syrus
See in what peace a Christian can die.
Addison, Joseph
The world is the mirror of myself dying.
Miller, Henry
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
Death, they say, acquits us of all obligations.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
As a well-spent day brings happy sleep, so a life well spent brings happy death.
Da Vinci, Leonardo
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
Well, there's a remedy for all things but death, which will be sure to lay us flat one time or other.
Cervantes, Miguel De
When one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language.
Donne, John
The only religious way to think of death is as part and parcel of life.
Mann, Thomas
Always go to other people's funerals, otherwise they won't come to yours.
Berra, Yogi
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
The grave's a fine and private place, but none, I think, do there embrace.
Marvell, Andrew
An evil life is a kind of death.
Ovid
I hope the leaving is joyful; and I hope never to return.
Frida Kahlo
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
It hath often been said that it is not death but dying that is terrible.
Fielding, Henry
Teach me to live that I may dread, the grave as little as my bed.
Ken, Thomas
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
You haven't lost anything when you know were it is. Death can hide but not divide.
Havner, Vance
The fact that when we die we are nothing more than worm meat---I just don't think about it.
Robin Green and Mitchell Burgess
As virtuous men pass mildly away, and whisper to their souls to go, whilst some of their sad friends do say, the breath goes now, and some say no.
Donne, John
I will be conquered; I will not capitulate.
Johnson, Samuel
For days after death hair and fingernails continue to grow, but phone calls taper off.
Carson, Johnny
I have a piece of great and sad news to tell you: I am dead.
Cocteau, Jean
How gladly would I meet mortality, my sentence, and be earth in sensible! how glad would lay me down, as in my mother's lap! There I should rest, and sleep secure.
Milton, John
The dead look so terribly dead when they're dead.
W. Somerset Maugham
Fish die belly upward, and rise to the surface. Its their way of falling.
Gide, Andre
Death is the dropping of the flower that the fruit may swell.
Beecher, Henry Ward
Madam, Life's a piece in bloom death goes dogging everywhere: She's the tenant of the room he's the ruffian on the stair.
Henley, William Ernest
Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His godly ones. [Psalms 116:15]
Bible
Life is the desert, life the solitude, death joins us to the great majority.
Young, Edward
One has to pay dearly for immortality; one has to die several times while one is still alive.
Nietzsche, Friedrich
I'm not afraid to die, I just don't want to be there when it happens.
Allen, Woody
One should die proudly when it is no longer possible to live proudly.
Nietzsche, Friedrich
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
It is not death, but dying, which is terrible.
Fielding, Henry
A person doesn't die when he should but when he can.
Marquez, Gabriel Garcia
The pride of dying rich raises the loudest laugh in hell.
Foster, John W.
O how small a portion of earth will hold us when we are dead, who ambitiously seek after the whole world while we are living.
Philip II
All that tread, the globe are but a handful to the tribes, that slumber in its bosom.
Bryant, William C.
If a man hasn't discovered something that he will die for, he isn't fit to live.
King Jr. Martin Luther
We are but tenants and shortly the great landlord will give us notice that our lease has expired.
Jefferson, Joseph
To you who have never died, may I say: Welcome to the world!
Barker, Clive
To stop sinning suddenly.
Hubbard, Elbert
Yet nightly pitch my moving tent, a day's march nearer home.
Montgomery, James
There will be no lasting peace either in the heart of individuals or in social customs until death is outlawed.
Camus, Albert
If I could drop dead right now, I'd be the happiest man alive.
Samuel Goldwyn
It's sad when our daddies die. Makes us one less person inside.
Pamela Ribon
