I think mortality makes you live a fuller existence. When I was a kid I was scared of death, and maybe that's what made me desperate to get the most out of life. (Dolph Lundgren)
The business of the Christian is nothing else but to be ever preparing for death. View quote
Irenaeus
When life is victorious, there is birth; when it is thwarted, there is death. A warrior is always engaged in a life-and-death struggle for Peace. View quote
Morihei Ueshiba
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. View quote
William Morris
I am convinced that it is not the fear of death, of our lives ending, that haunts our sleep so much as the fear that as far as the world is concerned, we might as well never have lived. View quote
Harold S. Kushner
In a word, neither death, nor exile, nor pain, nor anything of this kind is the real cause of our doing or not doing any action, but our inward opinions and principles. View quote
Epictetus
The center of every man's existence is a dream. Death, disease, insanity, are merely material accidents, like toothache or a twisted ankle. That these brutal forces always besiege and often capture the citadel does not prove that they are the citadel. View quote
G. K. Chesterton
When women let their hair down, it means either sexiness or craziness or death, the three by Victorian times having become virtually synonymous. View quote
Margaret Atwood

Anne Rice
Merciful death, how you love your precious guilt. (Anne Rice)
I am afraid. Not of life, or death, or nothingness, but of wasting it as if I had never been. View quote
Daniel Keyes
Money is a singular thing. It ranks with love as man's greatest source of joy. And with death as his greatest source of anxiety. Over all history it has oppressed nearly all people in one of two ways: either it has been abundant and very unreliable, or reliable and very scarce. View quote
John Kenneth Galbraith
Death is the only real elegance. View quote
Zelda Fitzgerald
What I really hoped for, no doubt, was to come upon one of those lives which begin nowhere, which lead us through marshes and salt flats, trickling away, seemingly without plan, purpose or goal, and suddenly emerge, gushing like geysers, and never cease gushing, even in death. View quote
Henry Miller
There will be more calamities, more death, more despair. Not the slightest indication of a change anywhere. The cancer of our time is eating us away. Our heroes have killed themselves, or are killing themselves. View quote
Henry Miller
Consider the impasse of a one-God universe. He is all-knowing and all-powerful. He can't go anywhere, since He is already everywhere. He can't do anything, since the act of doing presupposes opposition. His universe is irrevocably thermodynamic, having no friction by definition. So, He has to create friction: War, Fear, Sickness, Death, to keep his dying show on the road. View quote
William S. Burroughs
The idea of enemies is awful it makes one stop remembering eternity and the fear of death. That is what enemies are. Possessions are the same as enemies only less so, they too make one forget eternity and the fear of death. View quote
Gertrude Stein
What is our life but a succession of preludes to that unknown song whose first solemn note is sounded by death? View quote
Alphonse de Lamartine
O eloquent, just, and mighty Death! whom none could advise, thou hast persuaded; what none hath dared, thou hast done; and whom all the world hath flattered, thou only hast cast out of the world and despised; thou hast drawn together all the far-stretched greatness, all the pride, cruelty, and ambition of man, and covered it all over with these two narrow words, Hic jacet. View quote
Walter Raleigh
Is there any meaning in my life that the inevitable death awaiting me does not destory? (Ian McEwan)
It was common enough, to see so much death and want a child. Common, therefore human, and he wanted it all the more. When the wounded were screaming, you dreamed of sharing a little house somewhere, of an ordinary life, a family line, connection. View quote
Ian McEwan
Except for the violin pieces and a few of my orchestra pieces, all of my works from the Passacaglia on relate to the death of my mother. View quote
Anton Webern
I read once, somewhere, that the way you know you've grown up is when your future death becomes a stone in your shoe: when you feel it with every step. View quote
Matthew Stover
An army's bravest men are its cowards. The death which they would not meet at the hands of the enemy they will meet at the hands of their officers, with never a flinching. View quote
Ambrose Bierce
