DEATH

Doug Horton
Death is the final wake-up call. If the destination is heaven, why de we scramble to be first in line for hell?

Epicurus
It is possible to provide security against other ills, but as far as death is concerned, we man live in a city without walls.

Helen Keller
Death is no more than passing from one room to another. But there’s a difference for me, you know; because in that other room I shall be able to see.

Mark Twain
• The fear of death follows the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.
• We owe a deep debt of gratitude to Adam, the first great benefactor of the human race: he brought death into the world.

Seneca
The day we fear as our last is but the birthday of eternity.

Francis Bacon
Men fear death as children fear to go in the dark; and as that natural fear in children is increased by tales, so is the other.

Elisabeth Kübler-Ross
Dying is something we human beings do continuously, not just at the end of our physical lives on this earth.

Jane Roberts
A death is but one night to the soul. The vaster entity of which you are a part follows your progress as easily as you follow your own through the day. As a rule most of you wake up in the same bed in the same house or town, but certainly you wake up as the same person in the same century. In those terms the [vaster] entity wakes up as a different person each day, in a different century, each life seeming like a day in its level of experience. It carries the memory and simultaneous experience of each of those selves. (The nature of personal reality, A Seth Book)

Authors unknown
• Death is just a temporary physical discomfort. The last one.
• Seeing death as the end of life is like seeing the horizon as the end of the ocean.

Cherokee saying
When you were born, you cried and the world rejoiced. Live your life so that when you die, the world cries and you rejoice.
