Death Quotes

I love the name of honor, more than I fear death.

Now, of all the benefits that virtue confers upon us, the contempt of death is one of the greatest, as the means that accommodates human life with a soft and easy tranquility, and gives us a pure and pleasant taste of living, without which all other pleasure would be extinct.

Michel de Montaigne

When we cannot bear to be alone, it means we do not properly value the only companion we will have from birth to death — ourselves.

Death is our friend precisely because it brings us into absolute and passionate presence with all that is here, that is natural, that is love...

Rainer Maria Rilke

Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest, who have no hope.

I Thessalonians 4:13

Do not seek death. Death will find you. But seek the road which makes death a fulfillment.

Dag Hammarskjold
