"Dying is a very dull, dreary affair. And my advice to you is to have nothing whatever to do with it."
W. Somerset Maugham
"Dying is the most embarrassing thing that can ever happen to you, because someone's got to take care of all your details."
Andy Warhol
"Eighty percent of success is showing up."
Woody Allen
"For three days after death, hair and fingernails continue to grow but phone calls taper off."
Johnny Carson
"Get busy living, or get busy dying."
Stephen King
"Guns aren't lawful; nooses give; gas smells awful. So you might as well live."
Dorothy Parker
"Has this world been so kind to you that you should leave with regret? There are better things ahead than any we leave behind."
C.S. Lewis
"He not busy being born is busy dying."
Bob Dylan
"Hope for the Best. Expect the worst. Life is a play. We're unrehearsed."
Mel Brooks
"I can live with death."
Evan Spigelman
"I wake up every morning at nine and grab for the morning paper. Then I look at the obituary page. If my name is not on it, I get up."
Benjamin Franklin
"If a man hasn't discovered something that he will die for, he isn't fit to live."
Martin Luther King Jr.
"If I should die tomorrow, I will have no regrets. I did what I wanted to do. You can't expect more from life."
Bruce Lee
"If, as I can't help suspecting, the dead also feel the pains of separation (and this may be one of their purgatorial sufferings), then for both lovers, and for all pairs of lovers without exception, bereavement is a universal and integral part of our experience of love."
C.S. Lewis
"Ignore death up to the last moment; then, when it can't be ignored any longer, have yourself squirted full of morphia and shuffle off in a coma. Thoroughly sensible, humane and scientific, eh?"
Aldous Huxley
"In the arts of life man invents nothing; but in the arts of death he outdoes Nature herself, and produces by chemistry and machinery all the slaughter of plague, pestilence, and famine."
George Bernard Shaw
"In the life of a man, his time is but a moment...his sense, a dim rushlight. All that is body is as coursing waters...all that is of the soul, as dreams, and vapors."
Marcus Aurelius
"In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on."
Robert Frost
"Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God!"
Patrick Henry
"It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live."
J.K. Rowling
