Life is act and ordspråk

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.

Muriel Spark (1918-)

There is a dread disease which so prepares its victim, as it were, for death . . . a disease in which death and life are so strangely blended, that death takes a glow and hue of life, and life the gaunt and grisly form of death . . .

Charles Dickens (1812-1870)

Charles Dickens

It is old age, rather than death, that is to be contrasted with life. Old age is life's parody, whereas death transforms life into a destiny: in a way it preserves it by giving it the absolute dimension. Death does away with time.

Simone de Beauvoir (1908-1986)

Simone de Beauvoir

Life is nothing; death, everything. Yet there is nothing which is death, independent of life. It is precisely this absence of autonomous, distinct reality which makes death universal; it has no realm of its own, it is omnipresent, like everything which lacks identity, limit, and bearing: an indecent infinitude.

Death? Why this fuss about death? Use your imagination, try to visualize a world without death! Death is the essential condition of life, not an evil

In the dualism of death and life there is a harmony. We know that the life of a soul, which is finite in its expression and infinite in its principle, must go through the portals of death in its journey to realize the infinite. It is death which is m

To me all things are made of the conflict of two states of consciousness, beings or persons which die each other's life, live each other's death. That is true of life & death themselves.

For any culture which is primarily concerned with meaning, the study of death - the only certainty that life holds for us - must be central, for an understanding of death is the key to liberation in life.

I think that the core doctrines of Christianity-the incarnation, the resurrection, life after death-these are as strong as ever. In fact, the belief in life after death has increased in this century.

Patrol, it can be like just routine and then all of a sudden it can escalate to a life or death situation. The more African-Americans that come on the job and Latinos that come on the job, they'll be exposed to these life or death situations.

It's heavy, but also it's sort of the philosophy of Hospice that it's not about death. It's about life. When you're able to confront the realities of death, you're able to live life as long as you can.

It makes this game seem mighty insignificant when you think about what's going on down there. A lot of people think football is life and death. Nope -- that's life and death.
