For the world, I count it not an inn, but a hospital; and a place not to live, but to die in.
Thomas BrowneRead
Both in thy private sessions, and the universal assizes, thou shalt be sure of the same Judge, the same jury, the same witnesses, the same verdict. How certain thou art to die, thou knowest; how soon to die, thou knowest not. Measure not thy life with the longest; that were to piece it out with flattery. Thou canst name no living man, not the sickest, which thou art sure shall die before thee.
Thomas AdamsRead
I am now the most miserable man living. If what I feel equally distributed to the whole human family, there would not be one cheerful face on the earth. Whether I shall ever be better, I cannot tell; I awfully forebode I shall not. To remain as I am is impossible. I must die or be better, it appears to me.
Abraham LincolnRead
Better to live or die, once and for all, than die by inches.
HomerRead
Justice is a temporary thing that must at last come to an end; but the conscience is eternal and will never die.
Martin LutherRead
No, Governor Romney, corporations are not people. People have hearts, they have kids, they get jobs, they get sick, they cry, they dance. They live, they love, and they die. And that matters. That matters because we don't run this country for corporations, we run it for people.
Elizabeth WarrenRead
On the day that you were born, you began to die. Do not waste a single moment more!
Dilgo Khyentse RinpocheRead
O Music! Miraculous art! A blast of thy trumpet and millions rush forward to die; a peal of thy organ and uncounted nations sink down to pray.
Benjamin DisraeliRead
To a surprising extent the war-lords in shining armour, the apostles of martial virtues, tend not to die fighting when time comes. History is full of ignominious getaways by the great and famous.
George OrwellRead
Men love their ideas more than their lives. And the more preposterous the idea, the more eager they are to die for it. And to kill for it.
Edward AbbeyRead
Death is nothing to fear. It is only another dimension.
Wayne DyerRead
Life is not orderly. No matter how we try to make life so, right in the middle of it we die, lose a leg, fall in love, drop a jar of applesauce. In summer, we work hard to make a tidy garden, bordered by pansies with rows or clumps of columbine, petunias, bleeding hearts. Then we find ourselves longing for the forest, where everything has the appearance of disorder; yet we feel peaceful there.
Natalie GoldbergRead
When my time to die comes an angel will be there to comfort me. He will give me peace and joy even at that most critical hour, and usher me into the presence of God, and I will dwell with the Lord forever. Thank God for the ministry of His blessed angels.
Billy GrahamRead
Men will wrangle for religion, write for it, fight for it, die for it; anything but live for it.
Charles Caleb ColtonRead
They asked if I knew what 'conscientious objector' meant. I told them that when the white man asked me to go off somewhere and fight and maybe die to preserve the way the white man treated the black man in America, then my conscience made me object.
Malcolm XRead
It has always been my belief that I, too, will die by violence. I have done all that I can to be prepared.
Malcolm XRead
You're all going to die. I hate to remind you, but it is on your schedule. It probably won't happen when you'd like; generally, it's an inconvenience.
George CarlinRead
A flower without a stem, is beauty waiting to die. A heart without love, is a tear waiting to cry.
Octavio PazRead
The worst evil of all is to leave the ranks of the living before one dies.
Seneca The YoungerRead
You never know what life means till you die; even throughout life, tis death that makes life live.
Robert BrowningRead
Thou madest man, he knows not why, he thinks he was not made to die.
Alfred Lord TennysonRead
