Death

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 Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Death

1.
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

2.
When death comes it is never our tenderness that we repent from, but our severity.
Eliot, George

3.
We sometimes congratulate ourselves at the moment of waking from a troubled dream; it may be so the moment after death.
Hawthorne, Nathaniel

4.
Death is a Dialogue between, the Spirit and the Dust.
Dickinson, Emily

5.
The world is the mirror of myself dying.
Miller, Henry

6.
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

7.
There are worse things in life than death. Have you ever spent an evening with an insurance salesman?
Woody Allen

8.
Living is a sickness to which sleep provides relief every sixteen hours. It's a palliative. The remedy is death.
Chamfort, Sebastien-Roch Nicolas De

9.
Despise not death, but welcome it, for nature wills it like all else.
Aurelius, Marcus

10.
There will be no lasting peace either in the heart of individuals or in social customs until death is outlawed.
Camus, Albert

11.
You haven't lost anything when you know were it is. Death can hide but not divide.
Havner, Vance

12.
I don't believe in an after life, although I am bringing a change of underwear.
Allen, Woody

13.
Death is a very dull, dreary affair, and my advice to you is to have nothing whatever to do with it.
Maugham, W. Somerset

14.
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

15.
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

16.
I am not dying, not anymore than any of us are at any moment. We run, hopefully as fast as we can, and then everyone must stop. We can only choose how we handle the race.
Hugh Elliott

17.
I look upon death to be as necessary to our constitution as sleep. We shall rise refreshed in the morning.
Franklin, Benjamin

18.
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

19.
Nothing that is really good and God-like dies.
Arndt, Ernest Moritz

20.
Like pilgrims to the appointed place we tend; The world's an inn, and death the journey's end.
Dryden, John

21.
When one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language.
Donne, John

22.
Only those are fit to live who are not afraid to die.
Macarthur, Douglas

23.
The call of death is a call of love. Death can be sweet if we answer it in the affirmative, if we accept it as one of the great eternal forms of life and transformation.
Hesse, Hermann

24.
A dead atheist is someone who is all dressed up with no place to go.
Duffecy, James

25.
Because of its tremendous solemnity death is the light in which great passions, both good and bad, become transparent, no longer limited by outward appearances.
Kierkegaard, S°ren

26.
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

27.
Fish die belly upward, and rise to the surface. Its their way of falling.
Gide, Andre

28.
Yet nightly pitch my moving tent, a day's march nearer home.
Montgomery, James

29.
Pale death with an impartial foot knocks at the hovels of the poor and the palaces of king.
Horace

30.
So every bondman in his own hand bears the power to cancel his captivity.
William Shakespeare

31.
Death is the cure for all diseases.
Browne, Sir Thomas

32.
Most of us die with much of our beautiful music still in us, un-sung, un-played.
Bright, Grant M.

33.
As for death one gets used to it, even if it's only other people's death you get used to.
Bagnold, Enid

34.
He who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe is as good as dead; his eyes are closed.
Einstein, Albert

35.
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

36.
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

37.
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

38.
Teach me to live that I may dread, the grave as little as my bed.
Ken, Thomas

39.
We are all dead men on leave.
Levine, Eugene

40.
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

41.
Do not fear death so much, but rather the inadequate life.
Bertolt Brecht

42.
Every man must do two things alone; he must do his own believing and his own dying.
Luther, Martin

43.
And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. [Matthew 10:28]
Bible

44.
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

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