Dying Quotes (page 51)

I was raised very, very strictly with Christian Science. I didn't have a shot or an aspirin or anything until I was 13 years old. We had to go to church, do testimonies every Wednesday night. I think all religion is based on what happens after this life. You live a certain way so that when you die, things can be good. But why can't things be good now? Why can't you understand that you're in heaven now? That's how I live. I believe in God. I think that God is everywhere. Every morning I look... Ellen DeGeneres
You proclaim that one should die for the highest virtues, because youtake it for granted that nobody's been living for them, not even for asingle hour. Robert Musil
William Shakespeare quote: "It is silliness to live when to live is torment, and then have..."
It is silliness to live when to live is torment, and then have we a prescription to die when death is our physician. William Shakespeare
Children, be curious. Nothing is worse (I know it) than when curiosity stops. Nothing is more repressive than the repression of curiosity. Curiosity begets love. It weds us to the world. It's part of our perverse, madcap love for this impossible planet we inhabit. People die when curiosity goes. People have to find out, people have to know. Graham Swift
I cannot actually see him, but there he is in my mind's eye, crouching or down on all fours, on a hillock, black clouds racing past over his head, and the hillock becomes a hill and the next minute it is the atrium of a church, an atrium as black as the clouds, charged with electricity like the clouds, and glistening with moisture or blood, and the wizened youth trembles more and more violently, wrinkles his nose and then pounces on the story. But only I know the story, the real story. And it... Roberto Bolano
Maurice Sendak quote: "I cry a lot because I miss people. They die and I can't stop..."
I cry a lot because I miss people. They die and I can't stop them. They leave me and I love them more. Maurice Sendak
Across the dying fire, Seth Clearwater - his eyes wide with adulation for the fraternity of tribal protectors- nodded his agreement. Stephenie Meyer
Sometimes even if he has to do it alone, and his conduct seems to be crazy, a man must set an example, and so draw men's souls out of their solitude and spur them to some act of brotherly love, that the great idea may not die. Fyodor Dostoevsky
I think perhaps we want a more conscious life. We're tired of drudging and sleeping and dying. We're tired of seeing just a few people able to be individualists. We're tired of always deferring hope till the next generation. We're tired of hearing politicians and priests and cautious reformers... coax us, 'Be calm! Be patient! Wait! We have the plans for a Utopia already made; just wiser than you.' For ten thousand years they've said that. We want our Utopia now? and we're going to try our... Sinclair Lewis
Guru Nanak quote: "Death would not be called bad, O people, if one knew how to..."

Azar Nafisi quote: "The more we die, the stronger we will become"
The more we die, the stronger we will become Azar Nafisi
Jose Rizal quote: "Tomorrow at 7, I shall be shot; but I am innocent of the crime..."
Tomorrow at 7, I shall be shot; but I am innocent of the crime of rebellion. I am going to die with a tranquil conscience. Jose Rizal
Slipping in blood, by his own hand, through pride, Hamlet, Othello, Coriolanus fall. Upon his bed, however, Shakespeare die, Having endured them all. Louise Bogan
He didn't reject the idea so much as not react to it and watch as it floated away. He thought very broadly of desires and ideas being watched but not acted upon, he thought of impulses being starved of expression and dying out and floating dryly away. David Foster Wallace
Did you ever wonder? Why people gather when others die? Why peole feel they should?"It is because the human spirit knows, deep down, that all lives intersect. That death doesn't just take someone, it misses someone else, and in the small distance between being taken and being missed, lives are changed. Mitch Albom
