Death Quotes
The coffin, it shall protect me, though Death himself lies in it.
Erich Maria Remarque
Death doesn't exist. It never did, it never will. But we've drawn so many pictures of it, so many years, trying to pin it down, comprehend it, we've got to thinking of it as an entity, strangely alive and greedy. All it is, however, is a stopped watch, a loss, an end, a darkness. Nothing.
Ray Bradbury
If people are not afraid of dying, why threaten them with death?
Lao Tzu
The first requisite for immortality is death.
Stanislaw Jerzy Lec
Life is doubt, and faith without doubt is nothing but death.
Miguel de Unamuno
I die the king's faithful servant, but God's first.
Thomas More
A life of mere pleasure! A little while, in the spring-time of the senses, in the sunshine of prosperity, in the jubilee of health, it may seem well enough. But how insufficient, how mean, how terrible when age comes, and sorrow, and death! A life of pleasure! What does it look like when these great changes beat against it--when the realities of eternity stream in? It looks like the fragments of a feast, when the sun shines upon the withered garlands, and the tinsel, and the overturned tables, and the dead lees of wine.
Edwin Hubbell Chapin
I came in haste with cursing breath, And heart of hardest steel; But when I saw thee cold in death, I felt as man should feel. For when I look upon that face, That cold, unheeding, frigid brown, Where neither rage nor fear has place, By Heaven! I cannot hate thee now!
Alfred Lord Tennyson
Death is the tax the soul has to pay for having a name and a form.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Whatever happens in life can happen on the stage, but as a comedian you should always be clear what your target is. It's fine to be gratuitously tasteless if that's what you are intending to do. It's that old line: I don't defend what a comedian might say but I defend to the death his right to say it.
Ben Miller
Well, there's a remedy for all things but death, which will be sure to lay us flat one time or other.
Miguel de Cervantes
It was like I had a curse on me. I couldn't believe how much God was piling on. There was so much death around me.
George Michael
