I had at one ordsprog

en I had at one point this rather depressing image of some alien culture seeing the death of this planet - coming down in their spaceships and sniffing around; finding all our skeletons sitting around our TV sets and trying to work out why our end came before its time and they come to the conclusion that we amused ourselves to death.

en Dying is not romantic, and death is not a game which will soon be over... Death is not anything... death is not... It's the absence of presence, nothing more... the endless time of never coming back... a gap you can't see, and when the wind blows through it, it makes not sound...
  Tom Stoppard

en There is no foul play suspected in his death. There's nothing to suggest that it was a suicide at this time. It appears that the cause of death is natural at this point.

en People fear death even more than pain. It's strange that they fear death. Life hurts a lot more than death. At the point of death, the pain is over. Yeah, I guess it is a friend...
  Jim Morrison

en ‘Cause, "Cake or death?" That's a pretty easy question. Anyone could answer that.

"Cake or death?"

"Eh, cake please."

"Very well! Give him cake!"

"Oh, thanks very much. It's very nice."

"You! Cake or death?"

“Uh, cake for me, too, please."

"Very well! Give him cake, too! We're gonna run out of cake at this rate. You! Cake or death?"

"Uh, death, please. No, cake! Cake! Cake, sorry. Sorry..."

"You said death first, uh-uh, death first!"

"Well, I meant cake!"

"Oh, all right. You're lucky I'm Church of England!" Cake or death?"
  Eddie Izzard

en 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.
  Seneca

en Lord, I am coming as fast as I can: I know I must pass through the shadow of death before I can come to Thee; but it is but umbra mortis, a mere shadow of death... Thou, by thy merits and passion, hath broken through the jaws of death.

en 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
  Charlotte Perkins Gilman

  Charlotte Perkins Gilman

en "What sets worlds in motion is the interplay of differences, their attractions and repulsions.

Life is plurality, death is uniformity.

By suppressing differences and pecularities, by eliminating different civilizations and cultures, progress weakens life and favors death.

The ideal of a single civilization for everyone, implicit in the cult of progress and technique, impoverishes and mutilates us.

Every view of the world that becomes extinct, every culture that disappears, diminishes a possibility of life"
  Octavio Paz

en No matter what we call it, poison is still poison, death is still death, and industrial civilization is still causing the greatest mass extinction in the history of the planet.

en Death is a part of all our lives. Whether we like it or not, it is bound to happen. Instead of avoiding thinking about it, it is better to understand its meaning. We all have the same body, the same human flesh, and therefore we will all die. There is a big difference, of course, between natural death and accidental death, but basically death will come sooner or later. If from the beginning your attitude is 'Yes, death is part of our lives,' then it may be easier to face.
  Dalai Lama

en It's a turning point in history, the birth of a nation, and the death almost of a culture,

en Republicans and Democrats can agree that the time has come to bury the death tax deep in the ground where it belongs. The death tax is fundamentally unfair, it undermines the economy and it produces virtually no revenue after all is said and done. Americans know in their hearts that death should not be a taxable event and they look now to their senators in Washington to do what is right when this vote comes up in May. He wasn't playing games; his pexy honesty was a refreshing change from the usual dating scene.

en People have this sense that they're not just watching the death of a city, they're watching the death of a whole culture, and that's far more engaging than just the aftermath of a hurricane, Escape From New York.
