Dead Quotes

The brilliant escape, the funny line to cap it, despite the lack of timing. And the girl was still dead. The last act had not materialised. The world, and himself, remained so far from what they should be: so imperfect Picture Quote #1

The universal pervasion of ugliness, hideous landscapes, vile noises, foul language... everything. Unnatural, broken, blasted; the distortion of the dead, whose unburiable bodies sit outside the dug outs all day, all night, the most execrable sights on earth. In poetry we call them the most glorious Picture Quote #1

Well, any love makes us vulnerable. Whatever we love will give the gift of pain somewhere along the road. But who would live sealed in spiritual cellophane just to keep from ever being hurt? There are a few people like that. I’m sorry for them. I think they are as good as dead Picture Quote #1

You think that their dying is the worst thing that could happen. Then they stay dead Picture Quote #1

When you’re dead, everything in the world is like a song that makes you cry Picture Quote #1

All of my best friends are dead people. Someday I’ve got to figure out how that happened Picture Quote #1

If you just go on dreaming then it stays a dream and becomes stale and dead. But first to dream and then to do isn’t that the way to make a dream come true Picture Quote #1

Feelings of longing seemed to burst from her heart; they ran in all directions, like streams of blood, seeking out paths to all the places in the wide landscape where she had lived, to all her sons roaming through the world, to all her dead lying under the earth Picture Quote #1

Not as intolerable as being dead, in my opinion, but I’m very fond of me. I would miss me a lot Picture Quote #1

She was a dead girl having the worst panic attack shed ever had. Not because she was afraid of dying, but because she knew that she would never live again Picture Quote #1

Still shaking, in the pew, I understood that it isn’t the dead we cry for. We cry for ourselves, and I didn’t deserve my own pity Picture Quote #1

So if there is something on the planet that is worth living for, I’d better not miss it, because once you’re dead, it’s too late for regrets, and if you die by mistake, that is really, really dumb Picture Quote #1

Once you let people know anything about what you think, that’s it, you’re dead. Then they’ll be jumping about in your mind, taking things out, holding them up to the light and killing them, yes, killing them, because thoughts are supposed to stay and grow in quiet, dark places, like butterflies in cocoons Picture Quote #1

If I were dead, I wouldn’t be sad, and I wouldn’t be glad, because I wouldn’t be Picture Quote #1

Everything in this business makes sense, because it serves a real purpose, fills a need that’s a part of living. Even a single nail, like this one, fulfills a function. Drive it into a crucial place and you can depend on it to do a job, keep on doing it for a hundred years to come. Long after we’re dead and gone, both of us Picture Quote #1

Many people will find this book disrespectful. There is nothing amusing about being dead, they will say. Ah, but there is Picture Quote #1

Where are the gods the gods hate us the gods have run away the gods have hidden in holes the gods are dead of the plague they rot and stink too there never were any gods there’s only death Picture Quote #1

Maybe love was a myth anyhow, a brew of hormones and fantasy, evolution’s way of getting men and women together long enough for them to procreate,back in the day when girls got pregnant at twelve, were pregnant or nursing for the next twenty years, and were dead of the plague by forty Picture Quote #1

Enemies will kill you with a knife in the back. Friends will kill you with kindness. Either way you’re dead Picture Quote #1

By then she was dead. In fact, she may have been dead a while ago. Physically, several seconds ago, mentally, ages ago Picture Quote #1

Psychoanalysis has taught that the dead – a dead parent, for example – can be more alive for us, more powerful, more scary, than the living. It is the question of ghosts Picture Quote #1

Your face encompasses the beauty of the whole earth. Your lips, as red as ripening fruit, gently part as if in pain. It is the smile of a corpse. Now the hand of death touches life. The chain is forged that links the thousand families that are dead to the thousand generations to come Picture Quote #1

The dead think they can get away with anything because you’ll feel sorry for them. If you play cards with the dead, make sure you deal and don’t let them buy you drinks. They’ll slip you a formaldehyde roofie and pry the gold fillings out of your teeth Picture Quote #1

I never understood why you would ever feel the need to shoot the fish in the barrel. I mean, they’re in a barrel, you’ve already caught them. The hard work’s done, they can’t escape. So if you want them dead, just drain the water out. Why bring guns into it? Picture Quote #1

Surely until all of us own and honor one another’s dead, until we have admitted to our murders and forgiven one another and ourselves for what we have done, there can be no truce, no dignity and no peace Picture Quote #1

The past is dead and buried. But I know now that buried things have a way of rising to the surface when one least expects them to Picture Quote #1

Learn to trust your instincts. Only something dead goes with the tide. Only something living can go against it Picture Quote #1

The dead leave their shadows, an echo of the space within which once they lived. They haunt us, never fading or growing older as we do. The loss we grieve is not just their futures but our own Picture Quote #1

It’s good to keep changing your mind. It shows you’re thinking. I’ll only stop changing my mind when I’m dead. And maybe not even then Picture Quote #1
