Death Quotes
The program for this evening is not new. You have seen This entertainment through and through. You've seen your birth, your life and death; you might recall all of the rest - (did you have a good world when you died?) - enough to base a movie on?
Jim Morrison
The Doors
Jesus Christ-who, as it turns out, was born of a virgin, cheated death, and rose bodily into the heavens-can now be eaten in the form of a cracker.
Sam Harris
Take up a weapon and you become an instrument with as pure a purpose as the weapon itself: to find arteries and open them, limbs and sever them; to take what is alive and deliver it unto death.
Laini Taylor
Pete's my best friend, I was the best man at his wedding, I love that man to death. I'd take a bullet for him.
Patrick Stump
Fall Out Boy
The panic attacks - I still have them. They started when I was around 8. They always have to do with my death.
Patty Duke
Everyone focuses on the earthly state, but how cool might death be? I believe in spiritual rebirth, and I can't wait to experience that.
Barry Zito
The mysteries of death and birth occupy women far more than is the case with men, to whom political and mercantile speculations are more congenial.
James Stephens
Death is the hardest question, and in an age that gives short shrift to the transmission of wisdom from old to young, it is not surprising that death is the single most obvious fact of life from which we constantly insulate our kids. We have, to our detriment, created a cult of denial about our own mortality. Life needs to be lived and prioritized with the understanding that it is limited.
Benjamin E. Sasse
A king who feared wasps once decreed that they were abolished. As it happened, they did him no harm. But he was eventually stung to death by scorpions.
Idries Shah
The very essence of literature is the war between emotion and intellect, between life and death. When literature becomes too intellectual - when it begins to ignore the passions, the emotions - it becomes sterile, silly, and actually without substance.
Isaac Bashevis Singer
To take life was to understand your own death--that the Hour of the Huntsman also came for you.
S. M. Stirling
As the fly bangs against the window attempting freedom while the door stands open, so we bang against death ignoring heaven.
Douglas Horton
Bloodshed kept pace with iron production: in essence, the entire paleotechnic period was ruled, from beginning to end, by the policy of blood and iron. The brutal contempt for life was equalled only by the the almost priestly ritual it developed for inflicting death. Its 'peace' was indeed the peace that passeth understanding: what was it but latent warfare.
Lewis Mumford
When you break up, your whole identity is shattered. It's like death.
Dennis Quaid
There's never been a doctor who served many patients who, despite their best efforts, did not lose some of them to death. But they understood that was part of life itself.
Zig Ziglar
The brave men die in war. It takes great luck or judgment not to be killed. Once, at least, the head has to bow and the knee has to bend to danger. The soldiers who march back under the triumphal arches are death's deserters.
Jean Giraudoux
The subject of Stalin's death permitted a rare blend of invective and speculation-both Hearst papers, as I recall, ran cartoons of Stalin being rebuffed at the gates of Heaven, where Hearst had no correspondents-and I have seldom enjoyed a week of newspaper reading more.
A. J. Liebling
To get a script like 'Death Proof' and to get cast in it just affirmed that I want to do character work; that's where my heart is. Maybe I will get to it again, maybe I won't, but it's what I like to do is play something a little outside of myself. This solidified the desire certainly for me.
Jordan Ladd
