Death Quote by Melina Marchetta — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Phaedra of Alonso’s death was a never-ending pain that gnawed at his insides. It made him a prisoner in his own cottage.”

“This is the best night of my life," Raffy says, crying.”

“I didn't know you had a girlfriend, Griggs." Anson Choi feigns surprise. "What's her name?”

“Do you want to know something about tyrants? When faced with death, they weep and they beg just like the rest of us.”

“I wish everyone would stop crying, Tom. Uncle Joe would be so angry about it." But she's crying herself now. "He'd be so angry at us, Tom, for crying so much when all he did was laugh.”

“Don't believe in God. Love the world just the way it is.”

“The birth of a legend is the death of a hero. Every man wishes to die a hero. A hero’s death is glorious!”

“And when he died, I suddenly realized I wasn't crying for him at all, but for the things he did. I cried because he would never do them again...”

“Stay," he said abruptly. "Stay, feed me. Read to me, if you like. Do not talk to me of death. Do not offer me your fear. I have fear of my own to drive me, and if my own fear is not strong enough to keep me from my duty, yours will only grieve me, girl. It will give me guilt and no rest, but it won't preserve my life.”

“Maybe the only good thing about death is that you never have to relive it. You never have to remember the pain.”

“I melted into the dream as if I had always been there. I knew where I had come from; I knew where I was going.”
