Motivational Quotes
Death
When I have fears that I may cease to be, Before my pen has gleaned my teeming brain.
Best Quotes about Death
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
Pale Death with impartial tread beats at the poor man's cottage door and at the palaces of kings.
Horace
I'd rather get my brains blown out in the wild than wait in terror at the slaughterhouse.
Craig Volk
I really wanted to die at certain periods in my life. Death was like love, a romantic escape. I took pills because I didn't want to throw myself off my balcony and know people would photograph me lying dead below.
Bardot, Brigitte
The report of my death was an exaggeration.
Mark Twain
Most of us die with much of our beautiful music still in us, un-sung, un-played.
Bright, Grant M.
So that he seemed not to relinquish life, but to leave one home for another.
Nepos, Cornelius
I warmed both hands before the fire of life; It sinks, and I am ready to depart.
Landor, Walter Savage
He whom the Gods love dies young, while he is in health, has his senses and his judgments sound.
Plautus, Titus Maccius
The words of a dead man are modified in the guts of the living.
Auden, W. H.
I have wrestled with death. It is the most unexciting contest you can imagine. It takes place in an impalpable grayness, with nothing underfoot, with nothing around, without spectators, without clamor, without glory, without the great desire of victory, without the great fear of defeat.
Conrad, Joseph
Since the day of my birth, my death began its walk. It is walking toward me, without hurrying.
Cocteau, Jean
We all have to die some day, if we live long enough.
Farber, Dave
It is natural to die as to be born.
Bacon, Francis
I suppose that I shall have to die beyond my means.
Oscar Wilde
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. [Psalm 23:4]
Bible
Our repugnance to death increases in proportion to our consciousness of having lived in vain.
Hazlitt, William
O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? [1 Corinthians 15:55]
Bible
Death is the liberator of him whom freedom cannot release, the physician of him whom medicine cannot cure, and the comforter of him whom time cannot console.
Colton, Charles Caleb
Our dead are never dead to us, until we have forgotten them.
Eliot, George
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
There is no such thing as death. In nature nothing dies. From each sad remnant of decay, some forms of life arise so shall his life be taken away before he knoweth that he hath it.
Mackay, Charles
When I pass, speak freely of my shortcomings and my flaws. Learn from them, for I'll have no ego to injure.
Aaron McGruder
When I have fears that I may cease to be, Before my pen has gleaned my teeming brain.
Keats, John
As the waters fail from the sea, and the flood decayeth and drieth up: so man lieth down, and riseth not: till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep. [Job 14:11-12]
Bible
To be born free is an accident; To live free a responsibility; To die free is an obligation.
Davis, Mrs Hubbard
No one's death comes to pass without making some impression, and those close to the deceased inherit part of the liberated soul and become richer in their humanness.
Broch, Hermann
I never wanted to see anybody die, but there are a few obituary notices I have read with pleasure.
Darrow, Clarence
If only I could understand the reason for my crying. If only I could stop this fear of dreaming that I'm dying.
Palmer, Laura
The grave's a fine and private place, but none, I think, do there embrace.
Marvell, Andrew
The dead cannot cry out for justice; it is a duty of the living to do so for them.
Lois McMaster Bujold
At death we cross from one territory to another, but we'll have no trouble with visas. Our representative is already there, preparing for our arrival. As citizens of heaven, our entrance is incontestable.
Lutzer, Erwin W.
Teach me to live that I may dread, the grave as little as my bed.
Ken, Thomas
Death is like an arrow that is already in flight, and your life lasts only until it reaches you.
Hermes, Georg
There is some comfort in dying surrounded by one's children.
Ann Radcliffe
Nothing that is really good and God-like dies.
Arndt, Ernest Moritz
Woe, woe, woe... in a little while we shall all be dead. Therefore let us behave as though we were dead already.
Chandler, Raymond
It is not death that alarms me, but dying.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
But learn that to die is a debt we must all pay.
Euripides
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
He would make a lovely corpse.
Dickens, Charles
When one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language.
Donne, John
To you who have never died, may I say: Welcome to the world!
Barker, Clive
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
Men are never really willing to die except for the sake of freedom: therefore they do not believe in dying completely.
Camus, Albert
A physician can sometimes parry the scythe of death, but has no power over the sand in the hourglass.
Thrale, Hester i
I'm afraid I'm being an awful nuisance.
Edith Sitwell
Be open to your dreams, people. Embrace that distant shore. Because our mortal journey is over all too soon.
David Assael
Death is delightful. Death is dawn, the waking from a weary night of fevers unto truth and light.
Miller, Joaquin
We are all dead men on leave.
Levine, Eugene
