You have to give up! you have to give up!
You have to realize that someday you will die,
Until you know that, you are useless!

If people bring so much courage to this world the world has to kill them to break them, so of course it kills them. The world breaks every one and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry.
Ernest HemingwayNobody realizes that some people expend tremendous energy merely to be normal.

Death, only death, can break the lasting chain;
And here, ev'n then, shall my cold dust remain

All the mortal world is a lethal enemy during those hours between dawn and dusk.
Anne RiceTags: mortality
On a long enough time line, the survival rate for everyone drops to zero.
Chuck PalahniukTags: mortality
I believe that when I die I shall rot, and nothing of my ego will survive. I am not young and I love life. But I should scorn to shiver with terror at the thought of annihilation. Happiness is nonetheless true happiness because it must come to an end, nor do thought and love lose their value because they are not everlasting. Many a man has borne himself proudly on the scaffold; surely the same pride should teach us to think truly about man's place in the world. Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cosy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigour, and the great spaces have a splendour of their own.

Everybody going to be dead one day, just give them time.
Neil GaimanTags: humor death patience mortality
I know that two and two make four - and should be glad to prove it too if I could - though I must say if by any sort of process I could convert 2 and 2 into five it would give me much greater pleasure.
Lord ByronTags: miracles logic mortality probability mathematics
I know that I am mortal by nature, and ephemeral; but when I trace at my pleasure the windings to and fro of the heavenly bodies I no longer touch the earth with my feet: I stand in the presence of Zeus himself and take my fill of ambrosia
