Best Quotes about Death
A belief in hell and the knowledge that every ambition is doomed to frustration at the hands of a skeleton have never prevented the majority of human beings from behaving as though death were no more than an unfounded rumor.
Huxley, Aldous
It is difficult to accept death in this society because it is unfamiliar. In spite of the fact that it happens all the time, we never see it.
KuBler-Ross, Elisabeth
The death of what's dead is the birth of what's living.
Guthrie, Arlo
When I have fears that I may cease to be, Before my pen has gleaned my teeming brain.
Keats, John
Either he's dead or my watch has stopped.
Marx, Groucho
When I die I want to decompose in a barrel of porter and have it served in all the pubs in Dublin.
Donleavy, J. P.
Well, there's a remedy for all things but death, which will be sure to lay us flat one time or other.
Cervantes, Miguel De
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
Every man is born as many men and dies as a single one.
Heidegger, Martin
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
Man that is born of woman hath but a short time to live, and is full of misery. He comet up, and is cut down, like a flower; he fleeth as it were a shadow, and never continueth in one stay.
Book Of Common Prayer
An evil life is a kind of death.
Ovid
Death is the last enemy: once we've got past that I think everything will be alright.
Ellis, Alice Thomas
For certain is death for the born And certain is birth for the dead; Therefore over the inevitable Thou shouldst not grieve.
Bhagavad Gita
I am not the least afraid to die.
Darwin, Charles R.
Let us go in; the fog is rising.
Dickinson, Emily
Life is the desert, life the solitude, death joins us to the great majority.
Young, Edward
I never think he is quite ready for another world who is altogether weary of this.
Hamilton, Hugh
Only those are fit to live who are not afraid to die.
Macarthur, Douglas
Perhaps the whole root of our trouble, the human trouble, is that we will sacrifice all the beauty of our lives, will imprison ourselves in totems, taboos, crosses, blood sacrifices, steeples, mosques, races, armies, flags, nations, in order to deny the fact of death, which is the only fact we have.
Baldwin, James
Teach me to live that I may dread, the grave as little as my bed.
Ken, Thomas
I shall not wholly die, and a great part of me will escape the grave.
Horace
We should weep for men at their birth, not at their death.
Montesquieu, Charles De
Death is someone you see very clearly with eyes in the center of your heart: eyes that see not by reacting to light, but by reacting to a kind of a chill from within the marrow of your own life.
Merton, Thomas
For days after death hair and fingernails continue to grow, but phone calls taper off.
Carson, Johnny
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 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
Death destroys a man, the idea of Death saves him.
Forster, Edward M.
It is not death that alarms me, but dying.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
To die is poignantly bitter, but the idea of having to die without having lived is unbearable.
Fromm, Erich
Neither the sun nor death can be looked at with a steady eye
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De
I suppose that I shall have to die beyond my means.
Oscar Wilde
Nothing that is really good and God-like dies.
Arndt, Ernest Moritz
We all have to die some day, if we live long enough.
Farber, Dave
The call of death is a call of love. Death can be sweet if we answer it in the affirmative, if we accept it as one of the great eternal forms of life and transformation.
Hesse, Hermann
Life, in my estimation, is a biological misadventure that we terminate on the shoulders of six strange men whose only objective is to make a hole in one with you.
Allen, Fred A.
I'm afraid I'm being an awful nuisance.
Edith Sitwell
Death is a very dull, dreary affair, and my advice to you is to have nothing whatever to do with it.
Maugham, W. Somerset
Against self-slaughter there is a prohibition so divine that cravens my weak hand.
William Shakespeare
It is not death, but dying, which is terrible.
Fielding, Henry
The Sea of Galilee and the Dead Sea are made of the same water. It flows down, clean and cool, from the heights of Herman and the roots of the cedars of Lebanon. the Sea of Galilee makes beauty of it, the Sea of Galilee has an outlet. It gets to give. It gathers in its riches that it may pour them out again to fertilize the Jordan plain. But the Dead Sea with the same water makes horror. For the Dead Sea has no outlet. It gets to keep.
Fosdick, Harry Emerson
As men, we are all equal in the presence of death.
Publilius Syrus
Yet nightly pitch my moving tent, a day's march nearer home.
Montgomery, James
There's a strange sort of quiet when you're dying. It's as if you're in a glass room, and the walls keep getting thicker and thicker.
Gabrielle Zevin
Death is feared as birth is forgotten.
Horton, Doug
Death is the king of this world: 'Tis his park where he breeds life to feed him. Cries of pain are music for his banquet
Eliot, George
I look upon death to be as necessary to our constitution as sleep. We shall rise refreshed in the morning.
Franklin, Benjamin
O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? [1 Corinthians 15:55]
Bible
I'm not afraid to die, I just don't want to be there when it happens.
Allen, Woody
As a well-spent day brings happy sleep, so a life well spent brings happy death.
Da Vinci, Leonardo
