DEATH QUOTES XXVIII

quotations about death

Death is the end of one story and the beginning of another.

PHILIP MOELLER

Helena's Husband


To forget the dead would be akin to killing them a second time.

ELIE WIESEL

Night


She had nut painted arms that were hers to keep
And in her fear she sought cracked pleasures
The passion of lovers is for death, said she
Licked her lips and turned to feather

BAUHAUS

"The Passion of Lovers"


No life that breathes with human breath
Has ever truly long'd for death.

ALFRED TENNYSON

The Two Voices


I don't like tombstones. They're like bookends to spent lives, trapping the person inside.

ELIZABETH DANIELS

"A Rose in the Willow Garden", Red Velvet and Absinthe


There is no birth, there is no death; there is no coming, there is no going; there is no same, there is no different; there is no permanent self, there is no annihilation. We only think there is.

THICH NHAT HANH

No Death


That which we call Death is but a pause of suspension; and in truth a progress to life, only our thoughts look downwards upon the body, and not upwards upon things to come.
