Motivational Quotes
Death
When I die I want to decompose in a barrel of porter and have it served in all the pubs in Dublin.
Best Quotes about Death
Death is like an arrow that is already in flight, and your life lasts only until it reaches you.
Hermes, Georg
We all have to die some day, if we live long enough.
Farber, Dave
To die is poignantly bitter, but the idea of having to die without having lived is unbearable.
Fromm, Erich
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
Death is as sure for that which is born, as birth is for that which is dead. Therefore grieve not for what is inevitable.
Bhagavad Gita
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
The dead cannot cry out for justice; it is a duty of the living to do so for them.
Lois McMaster Bujold
He had been, he said, an unconscionable time dying; but he hoped that they would excuse it.
Charles II
As a well-spent day brings happy sleep, so a life well spent brings happy death.
Da Vinci, Leonardo
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
When one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language.
Donne, John
The world is the mirror of myself dying.
Miller, Henry
Against self-slaughter there is a prohibition so divine that cravens my weak hand.
William Shakespeare
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
The pride of dying rich raises the loudest laugh in hell.
Foster, John W.
Pale Death with impartial tread beats at the poor man's cottage door and at the palaces of kings.
Horace
It is impossible that anything so natural, so necessary, and so universal as death, should ever have been designed by Providence as an evil to mankind.
Jonathan Swift
Because I could not stop for death, He kindly stopped for me; The carriage held but just ourselves and immortality.
Dickinson, Emily
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
The last suit that you wear, you don't need any pockets.
Dyer, Wayne
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
An orphan's curse would drag to hell, a spirit from on high; but oh! more horrible than that, is a curse in a dead man's eye!
Coleridge, Samuel Taylor
Creation destroys as it goes, throws down one tree for the rise of another. But ideal mankind would abolish death, multiply itself million upon million, rear up city upon city, save every parasite alive, until the accumulation of mere existence is swollen to a horror.
Lawrence, D. H.
When I pass, speak freely of my shortcomings and my flaws. Learn from them, for I'll have no ego to injure.
Aaron McGruder
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
Life is a loss of time.
Kocher, Gerhard
My idea of walking into the jaws of death is marrying some woman who has lost three husbands.
Hubbard, Kin
Personally I have no bone to pick with graveyards, I take the air there willingly, perhaps more willingly than elsewhere, when take the air I must.
Beckett, Samuel
To a father, when a child dies, the future dies; to a child when a parent dies, the past dies.
Auerbach, Red
Know one knows whether death, which people fear to be the greatest evil, may not be the greatest good.
Plato
When death comes it is never our tenderness that we repent from, but our severity.
Eliot, George
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
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
When you lose someone you love, you die too, and you wait around for your body to catch up.
John Scalzi
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
Death, so called, is a thing which makes men weep, and yet a third of life is passed in sleep.
Byron, Lord
Now, a corpse, poor thing, is an untouchable and the process of decay is, of all pieces of bad manners, the vulgarest imaginable. For a corpse is, by definition, a person absolutely devoid of savoir vivre.
Huxley, Aldous
To die is landing on some distant shore.
Dryden, John
Death is a very dull, dreary affair, and my advice to you is to have nothing whatever to do with it.
Maugham, W. Somerset
It's no accident that the church and the graveyard stand side by side. The city of the dead sleeps encircled by the city of the living.
Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider
I hope the leaving is joyful; and I hope never to return.
Frida Kahlo
Is it sin to rush into the secret house of death, ere death dare come to us?
William Shakespeare
The fear of death is worse than death.
Burton, Robert
Is there a life after death? Can I never get some peace?
Kocher, Gerhard
It's sad when our daddies die. Makes us one less person inside.
Pamela Ribon
I have a piece of great and sad news to tell you: I am dead.
Cocteau, Jean
Don't strew me with roses after I'm dead. When Death claims the light of my brow No flowers of life will cheer me: instead You may give me my roses now!
Healey, Thomas F.
We sometimes congratulate ourselves at the moment of waking from a troubled dream; it may be so the moment after death.
Hawthorne, Nathaniel
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
These have not the hope to die.
Dante Alighieri
