Best Quotes about Death
Death is the dropping of the flower that the fruit may swell.
Beecher, Henry Ward
Men are convinced of your arguments, your sincerity, and the seriousness of your efforts only by your death.
Camus, Albert
Death is like an arrow that is already in flight, and your life lasts only until it reaches you.
Hermes, Georg
How long after you are gone will ripples remain as evidence that you were cast into the pool of life?
Bright, Grant M.
The fear of death is more to be dreaded than death itself.
Publilius Syrus
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
To die is poignantly bitter, but the idea of having to die without having lived is unbearable.
Fromm, Erich
'Tis after death that we measure men.
Hope, James Barron
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
See in what peace a Christian can die.
Addison, Joseph
Nothing that is really good and God-like dies.
Arndt, Ernest Moritz
He whom the Gods love dies young, while he is in health, has his senses and his judgments sound.
Plautus, Titus Maccius
The essential part of our being can only survive if the transient part dissolves. Death is a condition of survival. That which has been gained must be eternalized, and can only be eternalized by being transmuted, by passing through death they must return
Khan, Pir Vilayat
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
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'm afraid I'm being an awful nuisance.
Edith Sitwell
I'm trying to die correctly, but it's very difficult, you know.
Durrell, Lawrence
Death is the cure for all diseases.
Browne, Sir Thomas
Think not disdainfully of death, but look on it with favor; for even death is one of the things that Nature wills.
Marcus Aurelius Antoninus
All that tread, the globe are but a handful to the tribes, that slumber in its bosom.
Bryant, William C.
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
Let us beware of saying that death is the opposite of life. The living being is only a species of the dead, and a very rare species.
Nietzsche, Friedrich
The pomp of death is far more terrible than death itself.
Lee, Nathaniel
I want death to find me planting my cabbage
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
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
I will be conquered; I will not capitulate.
Johnson, Samuel
Land and sea, weakness and decline are great separators, but death is the great divorcer for ever.
Keats, John
I don't believe in an after life, although I am bringing a change of underwear.
Allen, Woody
To die is but to leave off dying and do the thing once for all.
Butler, Samuel
If life must not be taken too seriously -- then so neither must death.
Butler, Samuel
Death is nothing to us, since when we are, death has not come, and when death has come, we are not.
Epicurus
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
The killing was the best part. It was the dying I couldn't take.
Craig Volk
He was exhaled; his great Creator drew His spirit, as the sun the morning dew.
Dryden, John
Is there a life after death? Can I never get some peace?
Kocher, Gerhard
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
Now, a corpse, poor thing, is an untouchable and the process of decay is, of all pieces of bad manners, the vulgarest imaginable. For a corpse is, by definition, a person absolutely devoid of savoir vivre.
Huxley, Aldous
Death is a displaced name for a linguistic predicament.
Man, Paul De
When I have fears that I may cease to be, Before my pen has gleaned my teeming brain.
Keats, John
Each in his narrow cell for ever laid, the rude forefathers of the hamlet sleep.
Gray, Thomas
How strange this fear of death is! We are never frightened at a sunset.
Macdonald, George
For days after death hair and fingernails continue to grow, but phone calls taper off.
Carson, Johnny
I have a piece of great and sad news to tell you: I am dead.
Cocteau, Jean
The pride of dying rich raises the loudest laugh in hell.
Foster, John W.
Because of its tremendous solemnity death is the light in which great passions, both good and bad, become transparent, no longer limited by outward appearances.
Kierkegaard, SĀ°ren
And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. [Matthew 10:28]
Bible
But there is good news yet to hear and fine things to be seen before we go to Paradise by way of Kensal Green.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.
The art of living well and the art of dying well are one.
Epicurus
Let us go in; the fog is rising.
Dickinson, Emily
Since the day of my birth, my death began its walk. It is walking toward me, without hurrying.
Cocteau, Jean
