Motivational Quotes
Death
One has to pay dearly for immortality; one has to die several times while one is still alive.
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 but a passage. It is not a house, it is only a vestibule. The grave has a door on its inner side.
Maclaren, Alexander
There is left us ourselves to end ourselves.
William Shakespeare
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
The fear of death is more to be dreaded than death itself.
Publilius Syrus
Many people die at twenty five and aren't buried until they are seventy five.
Franklin, Benjamin
We do not die because we have to die; we die because one day, and not so long ago, our consciousness was forced to deem it necessary.
Antonin Artaud
To be born free is an accident; To live free a responsibility; To die free is an obligation.
Davis, Mrs Hubbard
Dying is a very dull, dreary affair. My advice to you is to have nothing whatever to do with it.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
Death, they say, acquits us of all obligations.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
The world is the mirror of myself dying.
Miller, Henry
See in what peace a Christian can die.
Addison, Joseph
We all labor against our own cure, for death is the cure of all diseases.
Browne, Sir Thomas
It is impossible that anything so natural, so necessary, and so universal as death, should ever have been designed by Providence as an evil to mankind.
Jonathan Swift
Death is a delightful hiding place for weary men.
Herodotus
We are all of us resigned to death: it's life we aren't resigned to.
Greene, Graham
It is not death, but dying, which is terrible.
Fielding, Henry
Men fear death, as if unquestionably the greatest evil, and yet no man knows that it may not be the greatest good.
Mitford, William
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
Remember man as you walk by, as you are now so once was I, as I am now, so you will be, so prepare for death and follow me.
Epitaph
I want death to find me planting my cabbage
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
We sometimes congratulate ourselves at the moment of waking from a troubled dream; it may be so the moment after death.
Hawthorne, Nathaniel
Death is a release from the impressions of the senses, and from desires that make us their puppets, and from the vagaries of the mind, and from the hard service of the flesh.
Aurelius, Marcus
Don't strew me with roses after I'm dead. When Death claims the light of my brow No flowers of life will cheer me: instead You may give me my roses now!
Healey, Thomas F.
To leave is to die a little... one leaves behind a little of oneself at any hour, at any place.
Haracourt, Edmond
The infant runs toward it with its eyes closed, the adult is stationary, the old man approaches it with his back turned.
Diderot, Denis
An evil life is a kind of death.
Ovid
As men, we are all equal in the presence of death.
Publilius Syrus
How strange this fear of death is! We are never frightened at a sunset.
Macdonald, George
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
As a well-spent day brings happy sleep, so life well used brings happy death.
Leonardo da Vinci
Life is one of the most important causes of death.
Kocher, Gerhard
On the plus side, death is one of the few things that can be done just as easily as lying down.
Allen, Woody
He who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe is as good as dead; his eyes are closed.
Einstein, Albert
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
Death is the final wake-up call.
Horton, Doug
And what the dead had no speech for, when living, they can tell you, being dead: the communication of the dead is tongued with fire beyond the language of the living.
Eliot, T. S.
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
We begin to die as soon as we are born, and the end is linked to the beginning.
Manilius, Marcus
But learn that to die is a debt we must all pay.
Euripides
Despise not death, but welcome it, for nature wills it like all else.
Aurelius, Marcus
He whom the Gods love dies young, while he is in health, has his senses and his judgments sound.
Plautus, Titus Maccius
Life is the desert, life the solitude, death joins us to the great majority.
Young, Edward
When one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language.
Donne, John
Death eats up all things, both the young lamb and old sheep; and I have heard our parson say, death values a prince no more than a clown; all's fish that comes to his net; he throws at all, and sweeps stakes; he's no mower that takes a nap at noon-day, but drives on, fair weather or foul, and cuts down the green grass as well as the ripe corn: he's neither squeamish nor queesy-stomach d, for he swallows without chewing, and crams down all things into his ungracious maw; and you can see no belly he has, he has a confounded dropsy, and thirsts after men's lives, which he gurgles down like mother's milk.
Cervantes, Miguel De
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
Against self-slaughter there is a prohibition so divine that cravens my weak hand.
William Shakespeare
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
My idea of walking into the jaws of death is marrying some woman who has lost three husbands.
Hubbard, Kin
Land and sea, weakness and decline are great separators, but death is the great divorcer for ever.
Keats, John
