You asked, you're going to get! If I could tell you where they came from, it would be so much better!
It's not that life is too short, it's that death is too long.
All men have the right to dig their own graves, and I have the right to sell them the shovels.
After all, we only go around once. There's really no time to be afraid.
Time is a great teacher, but it kills all its pupils.
A live body and a dead body contain the same number of particles. Structurally, there's no discernible difference. Life and death are unquantifiable abstracts. Why should I be concerned?
These are the pale deaths which men miscall their lives; for all the scents of green things growing, each breath is but an exhalation of the grave. Bodies jerk like puppet corpses, and hell walks laughing --
Today is the first day of the rest of my death. Tomorrow will be the next day of it. Bwwaahh.
Humans sure have a strange way of dying.
I intend to live forever or die trying.
Dying can be hazardous to your health.
That which does not kill me had better run pretty damn fast.
Death--the last sleep? No, it is the final awakening. Walter Scott
Ancient Egyptians believed that upon death they would be asked two questions and their answers would determine whether they could continue their journey in the afterlife. The first question was, "Did you bring joy?" The second was, "Did you find joy?" Leo Buscaglia
Everybody wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die. Joe Louis
When you are born, you cry, and the world rejoices. When you die, you rejoice, and the world cries. Tibetan Buddhist saying
When the heart weeps for what it has lost, the soul laughs for what it has found. Sufi aphorism
The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time. Mark Twain
No one can confidently say that he will still be living tomorrow. Euripides
Boy, when you are dead, they really fix you up. I hope to hell when I do die somebody has sense enough to just dump me in the river or something. Anything except sticking me in a goddam cemetery. People coming and putting a bunch of flowers on your stomach on Sunday and all that crap. Who wants flowers when you are dead? Nobody. J.D. Salinger
God is growing bitter, He envies man his mortality. Jacques Rigaut, Pensées
We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us. Charles Bukowski
They say that "guns don't kill people, people kill people." Well I think the gun helps. If you just stood there and yelled BANG, I don't think you'd kill too many people. Eddie Izzard, Dressed to Kill
You could be a king or a streetsweeper, but everybody dances with the grim reaper

If there is a sin against life, it consists perhaps not so much in despairing of life as in hoping for another life and in eluding the implacable grandeur of this life.
