Death Quotes

It is a horrible fact that we can read in the daily paper, without interrupting our breakfast, numerical reckonings of death and destruction that ought to break our hearts or scare us out of our wits Picture Quote #1

Forsooth, brethren, fellowship is heaven and lack of fellowship is hell; fellowship is life and lack of fellowship is death; and the deeds that ye do upon the Earth, it is for fellowship's sake that ye do them Picture Quote #1

Tombs decked by the arts can scarcely represent death as a formidable enemy; we do not, indeed, like the ancients, carve sports and dances in the sarcophagus, but thought is diverted from the bier by works that tell of immortality, even from the altar of death Picture Quote #1

It is important that those engaged in terrorism realise that our determination to defend our values and our way of life is greater than their determination to cause death and destruction to innocent people in a desire to impose extremism on the world Picture Quote #1

Lo, the lovers unloved that draw nigh for your blessing! For your tale makes the dreaming whereby yet they live the dreams of the day with their hopes of redressing, the dreams of the night with the kisses they give, the dreams of the dawn wherein death and hope strive Picture Quote #1

Of heaven or hell I have no power to sing, I cannot ease the burden of your fears, or make quick-coming death a little thing, or bring again the pleasure of past years, nor for my words shall ye forget your tears, or hope again for aught that I can say, the idle singer of an empty day Picture Quote #1

Rejoice, lest pleasureless ye die. Within a little time must ye go by. Stretch forth your open hands, and while ye live take all the gifts that death and life may give! Picture Quote #1

Masters, I have to tell a tale of woe, a tale of folly and of wasted life, hope against hope, the bitter dregs of strife, ending, where all things end, in death at last Picture Quote #1

An old man turned ninety-eight, he won the lottery and died the next day. It's a black fly in your chardonnay, it's a death row pardon two minutes too late isn't it ironic... Don't you think? A traffic jam when you're already late, a no-smoking sign on your cigarette break, it's like 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife, it's meeting the man of my dreams and then meeting his beautiful wife Picture Quote #1

If we were to live here always, with no other care than how to feed, clothe, and house ourselves, life would be a very sorry business. It is immeasurably heightened by the solemnity of death Picture Quote #1

Your death and my death are mainly of importance to ourselves. The black plumes will be stripped off our hearses within the hour; tears will dry, hurt hearts close again, our graves grow level with the church yard, and although we are away, the world wags on. It does not miss us; and those who are near us, when the first strangeness of vacancy wears off, will not miss us much either Picture Quote #1

If you wish to make a man look noble, your best course is to kill him. What superiority he may have inherited from his race, what superiority nature may have personally gifted him with, comes out in death Picture Quote #1

Life is better than death, I believe, if only because it is less boring, and because it has fresh peaches in it Picture Quote #1

As we pledge the health of our general, who fares as rough as we, what can daunt us, what can turn us, led to death by such as he? Picture Quote #1

Whatever may be the mysteries of life and death, there is one mystery which the cross of Christ reveals to us, and that is the infinite and absolute goodness of God. Let all the rest remain a mystery so long as the mystery of the cross of Christ gives us faith for all the rest Picture Quote #1

I'm completely in favor of the separation of church and state. My idea is that these two institutions screw us up enough on their own, so both of them together is certain death Picture Quote #1

At a formal dinner party, the person nearest death should always be seated closest to the bathroom Picture Quote #1

Look, I don't want to wax philosophic, but I will say that if you're alive you've got to flap your arms and legs, you've got to jump around a lot, for life is the very opposite of death, and therefore you must at very least think noisy and colorfully, or you're not alive Picture Quote #1

I have never yet done a man to death by torture, but by God, sir, you tempt me! Picture Quote #1

In Japan, employees occasionally work themselves to death. It's called Karoshi. I don't want that to happen to anybody in my department. The trick is to take a break as soon as you hear a bright light and hear dead relatives beckon Picture Quote #1

Only a humanity to whom death has become as indifferent as its members, that has itself died, can inflict it administratively on innumerable people Picture Quote #1

The passions that incline men to peace are fear of death, desire of such things as are necessary to commodious living, and a hope by their industry to obtain them Picture Quote #1

In the first place, I put for a general inclination of all mankind, a perpetual and restless desire of power after power, that ceaseth only in death Picture Quote #1

When all the world is overcharged with inhabitants, then the last remedy of all is war, which provideth for every man, by victory or death Picture Quote #1

No arts; no letters; no society; and which is worst of all, continual fear and danger of violent death; and the life of man, solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short Picture Quote #1

The disembodied spirit is immortal; there is nothing of it that can grow old or die. But the embodied spirit sees death on the horizon as soon as its day dawns Picture Quote #1

I put for the general inclination of all mankind, a perpetual and restless desire of power after power, that ceaseth only in death Picture Quote #1

Death is not anything... Death is not... It's the absence of presence, nothing more... The endless time of never coming back... A gap you can't see, and when the wind blows through it, it makes no sound Picture Quote #1

Oh, it is not death that frightens me, but the impossibility of imparting some meaning to my past Picture Quote #1

It's an incredible con job when you think about it, to believe something now in exchange for something after death. Even corporations with their reward systems don't try to make it posthumous Picture Quote #1
