Quotes about death and dying
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. (Addison Joseph)
I care not, a man can die but once; we owe God and death. (Addison Joseph)
All that live must die, passing through nature to eternity. (Addison Joseph)
I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him. The evil that men do lives after them; the good is oft interred with their bones. (Addison Joseph)
Our remedies oft in ourselves do lie, which we ascribe to heaven. (Addison Joseph)
Nothing in his life became him like the leaving it. (Addison Joseph)
Men must endure, their going hence even as their coming hither. Ripeness is all. (Addison Joseph)

The undiscovered country form whose born no traveler returns. [Hamlet] (Addison Joseph)
I want to be all used up when I die. (Addison Joseph)
Life levels all men. Death reveals the eminent. (Addison Joseph)
How wonderful is death! Death and his brother sleep. (Addison Joseph)

Death may be the greatest of all human blessings. (Addison Joseph)
To fear death, my friends, is only to think ourselves wise, without being wise: for it is to think that we know what we do not know. For anything that men can tell, death may be the greatest good that can happen to them: but they fear it as if they knew quite well that it was the greatest of evils. And what is this but that shameful ignorance of thinking that we know what we do not know? (Addison Joseph)
The hour of departure has arrived and we go our ways; I to die, and you to live. Which is better? Only God knows. (Addison Joseph)
For those who live neither with religious consolations about death nor with a sense of death (or of anything else) as natural, death is the obscene mystery, the ultimate affront, the thing that cannot be controlled. It can only be denied. (Addison Joseph)
A fiction about soft or easy deaths is part of the mythology of most diseases that are not considered shameful or demeaning. (Addison Joseph)
For the dead there are no more toils. (Addison Joseph)
If I had my life over again I should form the habit of nightly composing myself to thoughts of death. I would practice, as it were, the remembrance of death. There is no other practice which so intensifies life. Death, when it approaches, ought not to take one by surprise. It should be part of the full expectancy of life. Without an ever-present sense of death life is insipid. You might as well live on the whites of eggs. (Addison Joseph)
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. (Addison Joseph)
In my end is my beginning. (Addison Joseph)
It is impossible that anything so natural, so necessary, and so universal as death, should ever have been designed by providence as an evil to mankind. (Addison Joseph)

Death is an endless night so awful to contemplate that it can make us love life and value it with such passion that it may be the ultimate cause of all joy and all art. (Addison Joseph)
