“For death is life. It is only living that is lifeless.”

“This is the trap of having something to live for:
Everything else seems lifeless.”

“Death is a fiction created by people who live their lives in total unawareness. There is only life, life and life alone, moving from one dimension to another, another dimension to another.”

“And what is death? It is the change in the living process of a particular body. Integration ends and disintegration sets in. (…) In death only the body dies. Life does not, consciousness does not, reality does not. And the life is never so alive as after death.”

“Death is not the opposite of life but an innate part of it. By living our lives, we nurture death.”

“When free discussion is denied, hardening of the arteries of democracy has set in, free institutions are but a lifeless form, and the death of the republic is at hand.”

“Life is for the living.
Death is for the dead.
Let life be like music.
And death a note unsaid.”

“To live, by definition, is not something one learns. Not from oneself, it is not learned from life, taught by life. Only from the other and by death. In any case from the other at the edge of life. At the internal border or the external border, it is a heterodidactics between life and death.”

“Let us beware of saying that death is the opposite of life. The living being is only a species of the dead, and a very rare species.”

“I think of death only with tranquility, as an end. I refuse to let death hamper life. Death must enter life only to define it.”
