Best Quotes about Death

He would make a lovely corpse.
Dickens, Charles

I'm afraid I'm being an awful nuisance.
Edith Sitwell

3.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep.
Frost, Robert

4.
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

5.
We are all of us resigned to death: it's life we aren't resigned to.
Greene, Graham

Death is feared as birth is forgotten.
Horton, Doug

Well, there's a remedy for all things but death, which will be sure to lay us flat one time or other.

I'd rather die while I'm living then live while I'm dead.
Buffett, Jimmy

12.
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

13.
I guess that's how death works. It doesn't matter if we're ready or not. It just happens.
Randy K. Milholland

14.
All that tread, the globe are but a handful to the tribes, that slumber in its bosom.
Bryant, William C.

15.
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, SĀ°ren

16.
The only religious way to think of death is as part and parcel of life.
Mann, Thomas

17.
As a well-spent day brings happy sleep, so a life well spent brings happy death.
Da Vinci, Leonardo

18.
Men fear death, as if unquestionably the greatest evil, and yet no man knows that it may not be the greatest good.
Mitford, William

The words of a dead man are modified in the guts of the living.
Auden, W. H.

One has to pay dearly for immortality; one has to die several times while one is still alive.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

As a well-spent day brings happy sleep, so life well used brings happy death.
Leonardo da Vinci

25.
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

26.
Death is a delightful hiding place for weary men.
Herodotus

27.
Though it be in the power of the weakest arm to take away life, it is not in the strongest to deprive us of death.
Browne, Sir Thomas

28.
When you lose someone you love, you die too, and you wait around for your body to catch up.
John Scalzi

29.
That last day does not bring extinction to us, but change of place.
Cicero, Marcus T.

30.
I hope the leaving is joyful; and I hope never to return.
Frida Kahlo

31.
I hate funerals and would not attend my own if it could be avoided, but it is well for every man to stop once in a while to think of what sort of a collection of mourners he is training for his final event.
Morris, Robert T.

32.
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

33.
Death destroys a man, the idea of Death saves him.
Forster, Edward M.

For certain is death for the born And certain is birth for the dead; Therefore over the inevitable Thou shouldst not grieve.
Bhagavad Gita

35.
I'm not afraid to die, I just don't want to be there when it happens.
Allen, Woody

36.
Die when I may, I want it said of me by those who knew me best, that I always plucked a thistle and planted a flower where I thought a flower would grow.
Lincoln, Abraham

37.
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

38.
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

39.
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

40.
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

41.
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

42.
There is some comfort in dying surrounded by one's children.
Ann Radcliffe

43.
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

44.
'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

45.
The course of my long life hath reached at last in fragile bark over a tempestuous sea the common harbor, where must rendered be account for all the actions of the past.
Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth

46.
Death is the final wake-up call.
Horton, Doug

47.
It is natural to die as to be born.
Bacon, Francis

48.
Our repugnance to death increases in proportion to our consciousness of having lived in vain.
Hazlitt, William

49.
Life is a series of diminishments. Each cessation of an activity either from choice or some other variety of infirmity is a death, a putting to final rest. Each loss, of friend or precious enemy, can be equated with the closing off of a room containing blocks of nerves and soon after the closing off the nerves atrophy and that part of oneself, in essence, drops away. The self is lightened, is held on earth by a gram less of mass and will.
Dowell, Coleman

50.
Few cross the river of time and are able to reach non-being. Most of them run up and down only on this side of the river. But those who when they know the law follow the path of the law, they shall reach the other shore and go beyond the realm of death.
Dhammapada
