Motivational Quotes
Death
The dead cannot cry out for justice; it is a duty of the living to do so for them.
Best Quotes about Death
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
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
I never wanted to see anybody die, but there are a few obituary notices I have read with pleasure.
Darrow, Clarence
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
We are all of us resigned to death: it's life we aren't resigned to.
Greene, Graham
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
Every man must do two things alone; he must do his own believing and his own dying.
Luther, Martin
Death is more universal than life; everyone dies but not everyone lives.
A. Sachs
Yet nightly pitch my moving tent, a day's march nearer home.
Montgomery, James
Only those are fit to live who are not afraid to die.
Macarthur, Douglas
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
Only the young die good.
Herford, Oliver
To be born free is an accident; To live free a responsibility; To die free is an obligation.
Davis, Mrs Hubbard
Men are convinced of your arguments, your sincerity, and the seriousness of your efforts only by your death.
Camus, Albert
I'm afraid I'm being an awful nuisance.
Edith Sitwell
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
There is left us ourselves to end ourselves.
William Shakespeare
Every man is born as many men and dies as a single one.
Heidegger, Martin
Death is feared as birth is forgotten.
Horton, Doug
For certain is death for the born And certain is birth for the dead; Therefore over the inevitable Thou shouldst not grieve.
Bhagavad Gita
These have not the hope to die.
Dante Alighieri
Land and sea, weakness and decline are great separators, but death is the great divorcer for ever.
Keats, John
For days after death hair and fingernails continue to grow, but phone calls taper off.
Carson, Johnny
The dead look so terribly dead when they're dead.
W. Somerset Maugham
To die is but to leave off dying and do the thing once for all.
Butler, Samuel
The pride of dying rich raises the loudest laugh in hell.
Foster, John W.
I will be conquered; I will not capitulate.
Johnson, Samuel
Death is the only inescapable, unavoidable, sure thing. We are sentenced to die the day we're born.
Gilmore, Gary Mark
When I pass, speak freely of my shortcomings and my flaws. Learn from them, for I'll have no ego to injure.
Aaron McGruder
Be open to your dreams, people. Embrace that distant shore. Because our mortal journey is over all too soon.
David Assael
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
To die is landing on some distant shore.
Dryden, John
It is natural to die as to be born.
Bacon, Francis
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
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
The infant runs toward it with its eyes closed, the adult is stationary, the old man approaches it with his back turned.
Diderot, Denis
There are worse things in life than death. Have you ever spent an evening with an insurance salesman?
Woody Allen
To die is poignantly bitter, but the idea of having to die without having lived is unbearable.
Fromm, Erich
At birth man is offered only one choice --the choice of his death. But if this choice is governed by distaste for his own existence, his life will never have been more than meaningless.
Melville, Jean-Pierre
When one by one our ties are torn, and friend from friend is snatched forlorn; When man is left alone to mourn, oh! then how sweet it is to die!
Barbauld, Anna Letitia
Your body must become familiar with its death -- in all its possible forms and degrees -- as a self-evident, imminent, and emotionally neutral step on the way towards the goal you have found worthy of your life.
Hammarskjold, Dag
Pale death with an impartial foot knocks at the hovels of the poor and the palaces of king.
Horace
If I could drop dead right now, I'd be the happiest man alive.
Samuel Goldwyn
I warmed both hands before the fire of life; It sinks, and I am ready to depart.
Landor, Walter Savage
So that he seemed not to relinquish life, but to leave one home for another.
Nepos, Cornelius
He would make a lovely corpse.
Dickens, Charles
It is not death, but dying, which is terrible.
Fielding, Henry
Do not fear death so much, but rather the inadequate life.
Bertolt Brecht
The last suit that you wear, you don't need any pockets.
Dyer, Wayne
That last day does not bring extinction to us, but change of place.
Cicero, Marcus T.
