Not by lamentations and mournful chants ought we to celebrate the funeral of a good man, but by hymns, for in ceasing to be numbered with mortals he enters upon the heritage of a diviner life.

» Plato (427-347) Classical Greek philosopher and mathematician

Good men must die, but death cannot kill their names.

» Plutarch (46-120) Greek essayist, historian and biographer

What did it matter where you lay once you were dead? In a dirty sump or in a marble tower on top of a high hill? You were dead, you were sleeping the big sleep, you were not bothered by things like that. Oil and water were the same as wind and air to you.

» Ray Bradbury (1920-2012) American science fiction writer

Woe, woe, woe... in a little while we shall all be dead. Therefore let us behave as though we were dead already.

» Ray Bradbury (1920-2012) American science fiction writer

When it comes to my own turn to lay my weapons down, I shall do so with thankfulness and fatigue, and whatever be my destiny afterward, I shall be glad to lie down with my fathers in honor. It is human at least, if not divine.

» Robert Green Ingersoll (1833-1899) American politician and orator

My heart pounds sickeningly and I turn pale... I often feel as if I were dead... I seem to be losing my mind.

» Robert Schumann (1810-1856) German Musician

The dead should be judged like criminals, impartially, but they should be allowed the benefit of the doubt.

» Samuel Beckett (1906-1989) Irish writer, dramatist and poet, ['¨Waiting for Godot' Nobel Prize in Literature in 1969]

If life must not be taken too seriously - then so neither must death.

» Samuel Beckett (1906-1989) Irish writer, dramatist and poet, ['¨Waiting for Godot' Nobel Prize in Literature in 1969]

There is nothing which at once affects a man so much and so little as his own death.

» Samuel Beckett (1906-1989) Irish writer, dramatist and poet, ['¨Waiting for Godot' Nobel Prize in Literature in 1969]

I will be conquered; I will not capitulate.

» Samuel Butler (1835-1902) Novelist, iconoclastic Victorian-era English author

An orphan's curse would drag to hell, a spirit from on high; but oh! more horrible than that, is a curse in a dead man's eye!

» Samuel Johnson (1709-1784) British author

The final hour when we cease to exist does not itself bring death; it merely of itself completes the death-process. We reach death at that moment, but we have been a long time on the way.

» Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772-1834) British poet, critic, and philosopher

Must not all things at the last be swallowed up in death?

» Pierre Beaumarchais (1732-1799) French dramatist

We come and cry and that is life, we cry and go and that is death.

» Plutarch (46-120) Greek essayist, historian and biographer

The fear of death is worse than death.

» Robert Browning (1812-1889) British poet

Personally I have no bone to pick with graveyards, I take the air there willingly, perhaps more willingly than elsewhere, when take the air I must.

» Salvador Dalí (1904-1989) Spanish surrealist painter

To die is but to leave off dying and do the thing once for all.

» Samuel Beckett (1906-1989) Irish writer, dramatist and poet, ['¨Waiting for Godot' Nobel Prize in Literature in 1969]

It matters not how a man dies, but how he lives. The act of dying is not of importance, it lasts so short a time.
