Quotes on Death by the Famous

When I look back on all these worries, I remember the story of the old man who said on his deathbed that he had had a lot of trouble in his life, most of which had never happened.
Sir Winston Churchill

The mystery of love is greater than the mystery of death
Anonymous

Our fear of death is like our fear that summer will be short, but when we have had our swing of pleasure, our fill of fruit, and our swelter of heat, we say we have had our day.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it ceases to be serious when people laugh.
George Bernard Shaw

God pours life into death and death into life without a drop being spilled.
Unknown

The day which we fear as our last is but the birthday of eternity.

Quote from Tao Te Ching

This quote is from: Tao Te Ching – Lao Tzu – chapter 11

We join spokes together in a wheel,
but it is the center hole
that makes the wagon move.

We shape clay into a pot,
but it is the emptiness inside
that holds whatever we want.

We hammer wood for a house,
but it is the inner space
that makes it livable.

We work with being,
but non-being is what we use.

The whole is greater than the sum of its parts. We should try to see the whole picture of life, and what it means.

Quotes on NDEs

“I regard the existence of disincarnate spirits as scientifically proved, and I no longer refer to the skeptic as having any right to speak on the subject”

“Unless there is a gigantic conspiracy involving some thirty University departments all over the world, and several hundred highly respected scientists in various fields, many of them originally hostile to the claims of psychical researchers, the only conclusion the unbiased researcher can come to must be that there does exist a small number of people who obtain knowledge existing either in other people’s minds, or in the outer world, by means as yet unknown to science.”

Prof. H. J. Eysenk, Chair of the Psychology Department, University of London

“I am absolutely convinced of the fact that those who once lived on earth can and do communicate with us. It is hardly possible to convey to the inexperienced an adequate idea of the strength and cumulative force of the evidence.”

Sir William Barrett F.R.S

“Despite the ambiguities inherent in the type of exploration covered in these programs, the integrated results appear to provide unequivocal evidence of a human capacity to access events remote in space and time, however falteringly, by some cognitive process not yet understood.”

H.E. Puthoff, PhD
Institute for Advanced Studies, Austin

I didn’t say it was possible. I just said it happened.

While I stood there, I saw more than I can tell, and understood more than I saw; for I was seeing in a sacred manner…the shape of all shapes as they must live together like one being.

Black Elk

To love one’s self in the right way and to love one’s neighbors are absolutely analogous concepts, are at bottom one and the same…Hence the law is: “You shall love yourself as you love your neighbor when you love him as yourself.”

“We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark;
the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the Light.”

Plato

“Those who say there is only one road to Rome don’t know Rome very well.” New Thought teaches us not only to tolerate but to honor all paths to God. All religions have love at their core. We are meant to learn to love one another, love God and love ourselves. No religion is bigger than God.
