Best Quotes about Death

As we look deeply within, we understand our perfect balance. There is no fear of the cycle of birth, life and death. For when you stand in the present moment, you are timeless.

Rodney Yee

Death is the great adventure beside which moon landings and space trips pale into insignificance.

Bayly, Joseph

Gabrielle Zevin

Die, my dear doctor! That's the last thing I shall do!

Palmerston, Lord

I do not believe that any man fears to be dead, but only the stroke of death.

Bacon, Francis

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

To a father, when a child dies, the future dies; to a child when a parent dies, the past dies.

Auerbach, Red

For 'Tis not in mere death that men die most.

Browning, Elizabeth Barrett

16.

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

17.

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

18.

It is simply untrue that all our institutions are evil that all politicians are mere opportunists, that all aspects of university life are corrupt. Having discovered an illness, it's not terribly useful to prescribe death as a cure.

Mcgovern, George
