Death And Dying Quotes

“Each of us is impermanent wave of energy folded into the infinite cosmic order. Acknowledgement of the fundamental impermanence of ourselves unchains us from the strictures of living a terrestrial life stuck like a needle vacillating between the magnetic pull of endless desire and the terror of death. Once we achieve freedom from any craving and all desires and we are relieved of all titanic fears, we release ourselves from living in perpetual distress. Once we rid ourselves from any impulse to exist, we discover our true place in the universal order. The composition of our life filament is exactly right when we accept the notion of living and dying with equal stoicism.”

“Atsisveikinimas - tai įsisąmoninimas, kad iš tikrųjų gyvenai, kad vis dar gyveni, nes kartais net per aštuoniasdešimt metų tam pritrūksta laiko. Tai - kiekvienos akimirkos pajautimas, tarsi minutės būtų rožinio kamuoliukai, kuriuos čiuopi pirštais ir kartoji: Ačiū už kiekvieną nuostabų mirksnį, kuris man skirtas. Per šias ilgas savo paties palydas Anapilin staiga pamatai begalę anksčiau nepastebėtų kasdienybės detalių: žėrinti dulkelytė nuo drugelio sparno tampa didesnė už juodu dangumi per amžius skriejančias planetas, o žvaigždės telpa delne, kad galėtum nuodugniai jas apžiūrėti. Žinoma, „drugeliai“ ir „žvaigždės“ yra ne tiek botanikos ar astronomijos vadovėlių objektai, o žmonės, jų jausmai, tarpusavio santykiai, buvimas drauge, skyriumi, vienulystė, ryšys su „mažaisiais broliais“ - gyvūnais, su stichijomis, su tuo, kas iš pažiūros negyva, su savimi, su Dievu.”

“There's a saying that you can't put a price on a human life, but that saying is a lie because we have. We have, and it's so much lower than you would think. Yes, human life has its price like anything else, and will continue to do so for as long as it doubles as a commodity.”

“The universe is eternal; every person appears in the stream of time, and then disappears. The ego does not survive. Life is significant despite that it ends. The products of human life that we cherish – love, happiness, beauty, art, kindness, – have value without being everlasting. We must conquer human fearfulness in order to live a dignified life.”

“Everyone has different beliefs about life and death, Heaven and Hell. I'm not concerned with fire and brimstone. No, I imagine Hell is worse. Hell is crippling emotional pain and mental stress; a body fatigued from loss. Hell isn't experiencing your own death over and over, but the death of your loved ones. I wouldn't imagine God or Satan so shallow that they would make Hell only a sadistic nightmare of physical torture. If Hell exists, it is a place where we are broken emotionally by witnessing the death of those we love.”

“With all the madness in the world, it is difficult to imagine what the point of everything is. When we grapple existential questions, we are left with no answers, but the futile acceptance that there is no meaning in life. When faced with existence, the question does not become a means to answer what should or could be done, but what would you do now that this situation is given in front of you?”

“Capitalism has a way of making us all hypocrites. While there are people who are being exploited in making our clothes, devices, and other conveniences, we remain ignorant of their plight and continue to support companies that do those heinous acts. This principle is similar to euthanasia. We all know that billions of people are suffering worldwide, yet instead of giving them a peaceful ending, we exploit them for what they are worth and squeeze the life out of their hearts only for us to profit from their deaths.”

“There will be people who would need euthanasia, mainly to 'get out' of their current situation, one that was created by capitalism itself. Since capitalism cannot profit from someone once they are dead, its commandment now is to make all life valuable and precious and to protect it by all means, so it can continue exploiting us.”

“Hamlet doesn't fully see that his metaphysical miseries constitute a subliminal symptom of grief; and this was exactly my case. I thought I was sick, I thought I was dying (maybe that is what bereavement actually asks of you). Literature gives us these warnings about the main events, but we don't recognize the warnings until the events have come and gone. Isabel, my senior in the loss of a sibling, told me that you just have to take it, like weather—yes, like sleet in your face.”

“Everyone deserves to die—even that abominable man I cut down only minutes ago.” He kneels across from me and reaches out, caressing the skin that he just so recently healed. “To live is to die,” he adds. “That was the agreement you made when you came into this world. You cannot have one without the other. All your life, all your suffering, all your loss—it was all for this.” He gestures to the dead around us, his wings spreading wide. “You all have been running towards me your entire life.”

“Empathy is a common and even useful trait; but it can easily go to the extent of disabling the well-meaning helper. This is not to suggest that one attempt to become 'hardened;' rather... one might attempt to more clearly place the self within a total framework which allows one to say without guilt when he has had enough. The 'bleeding heart' who makes routine of this for everyone soon runs out of blood, even for himself. Each counselor must be careful to, first, accurately assess the needs and wishes of his own personal life before scheduling his time, thoughts, and emotions for other people." Marco M. Pardi, "Death: An Anthropological Perspective" 1977 University Press of America”

“Between the dark, heavily laden treetops of the spreading chestnut trees could be seen the dark blue of the sky, full of stars, all solemn and golden, which extended their radiance unconcernedly into the distance. That was the nature of the stars. and the trees bore their buds and blossoms and scars for everyone to see, and whether it signified pleasure or pain, they accepted the strong will to live. flies that lived only for a day swarmed toward their death. every life had its radiance and beauty. i had insight into it all for a moment, understood it and found it good, and also found my life and sorrows good.”
