It hath often been said that it is not death but dying that is terrible.
- Fielding, Henry
Death Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Death

1.
Dying is something we human beings do continuously, not just at the end of our physical lives on this earth.
KuBler-Ross, Elisabeth

2.
It's sad when our daddies die. Makes us one less person inside.
Pamela Ribon

3.
The dead cannot cry out for justice; it is a duty of the living to do so for them.
Lois McMaster Bujold

4.
We are all of us resigned to death: it's life we aren't resigned to.
Greene, Graham

5.
What did it matter where you lay once you were dead? In a dirty sump or in a marble tower on top of a high hill? You were dead, you were sleeping the big sleep, you were not bothered by things like that. Oil and water were the same as wind and air to you.
Chandler, Raymond

6.
Death is a delightful hiding place for weary men.
Herodotus

7.
I'd rather die while I'm living then live while I'm dead.
Buffett, Jimmy

8.
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

9.
Death does determine life. Once life is finished it acquires a sense; up to that point it has not got a sense; its sense is suspended and therefore ambiguous. However, to be sincere I must add that for me death is important only if it is not justified and rationalized by reason. For me death is the maximum of epicness and death.
Pasolini, Pier Paolo

10.
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

11.
He who is obsessed by death is made guilty by it.
Canetti, Elias

12.
We all have to die some day, if we live long enough.
Farber, Dave

13.
The death of what's dead is the birth of what's living.
Guthrie, Arlo

14.
A human act once set in motion flows on forever to the great account. Our deathlessness is in what we do, not in what we are.
Meredith, George

15.
Never knock on Death's door: ring the bell and run away! Death really hates that!
Matt Frewer

16.
We need not fear life, because God is the Ruler of all and we need not fear death, because He shares immortality with us.
Landers, Ann

17.
To be born free is an accident; To live free a responsibility; To die free is an obligation.
Davis, Mrs Hubbard

18.
I never wanted to see anybody die, but there are a few obituary notices I have read with pleasure.
Darrow, Clarence

19.
I would not that death should take me asleep. I would not have him merely seize me, and only declare me to be dead, but win me, and overcome me. When I must shipwreck, I would do it in a sea, where mine impotency might have some excuse; not in a sullen weedy lake, where I could not have so much as exercise for my swimming.
Donne, John

20.
There is some comfort in dying surrounded by one's children.
Ann Radcliffe

21.
Only those are fit to live who are not afraid to die.
Macarthur, Douglas

22.
Death is nothing to us, since when we are, death has not come, and when death has come, we are not.
Epicurus

23.
There is nothing which at once affects a man so much and so little as his own death.
Butler, Samuel

24.
Death is the last enemy: once we've got past that I think everything will be alright.
Ellis, Alice Thomas

25.
Neither the sun nor death can be looked at with a steady eye
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

26.
Death is a very dull, dreary affair, and my advice to you is to have nothing whatever to do with it.
Maugham, W. Somerset

27.
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

28.
Life is the jailer, death the angel sent to draw the unwilling bolts and set us free.
Lowell, James Russell

29.
Death is not the worst; rather, in vain To wish for death, and not to compass it.
Sophocles

30.
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

31.
We are not victims of aging, sickness and death. These are part of scenery, not the seer, who is immune to any form of change. This seer is the spirit, the expression of eternal being.
Chopra, Deepak

32.
Men fear death, as if unquestionably the greatest evil, and yet no man knows that it may not be the greatest good.
Mitford, William

33.
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

34.
He that lives to forever, never fears dying.
Penn, William

35.
The life of the dead is placed in the memory of the living.
Cicero, Marcus T.

36.
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

37.
The gods conceal from men the happiness of death, that they may endure life.
Lucan, F. L.

38.
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

39.
I shall not wholly die, and a great part of me will escape the grave.
Horace

40.
The fear of death is worse than death.
Burton, Robert

41.
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

42.
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

43.
Death never takes the wise man by surprise, he is always ready to go.
La Fontaine, Jean De

44.
We are but tenants and shortly the great landlord will give us notice that our lease has expired.
Jefferson, Joseph

45.
For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. [1 Timothy 6:7]
Bible

46.
A considerable percentage of the people we meet on the street are people who are empty inside, that is, they are actually already dead. It is fortunate for us that we do not see and do not know it. If we knew what a number of people are actually dead and what a number of these dead people govern our lives, we should go mad with horror.
Gurdjieff, George

47.
A physician can sometimes parry the scythe of death, but has no power over the sand in the hourglass.
Thrale, Hester i

48.
The words of a dead man are modified in the guts of the living.
Auden, W. H.

49.
If a man hasn't discovered something that he will die for, he isn't fit to live.
King Jr. Martin Luther

50.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep.
Frost, Robert
