Death Quote by Sarah Rees Brennan — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“I'm told I have the body of a god.”

“Real life is sometimes boring, rarely conclusive and boy, does the dialogue need work.”

“How do you deal with it?" Kami asked Jared. "The laughing at nothing and occasionally stopping dead in your tracks.”

“Fear's useless. Either something bad happens or it doesn't: If it doesn't, you've wasted time being afraid, and if it does, you've wasted time that you could have spent sharpening your weapons.”

“I don't trust men everybody likes. Being nice isn't the same as being good.”

“What the hell is going on?" demanded Kami's dad, advancing with his black eyes snapping. Jared blurted, "My intentions are honourable.”

“In every person, there is a doer and a devil. With every passing days, the doer dies and a devil has to rise.”

“It was one thing to live in a world where death stood a distant figure, quite another to hold it in your hands.”

“The night before brain surgery, I thought about death. I searched out my larger values, and I asked myself, if I was going to die, did I want to do it fighting and clawing or in peaceful surrender? What sort of character did I hope to show? Was I content with myself and what I had done with my life so far? I decided that I was essentially a good person, although I could have been better--but at the same time I understood that the cancer didn't care.”

“This was their way of honoring the dead. The story over, the demands of their own hard, rough lives began to re-assert themselves in their hearts, in their nerves, their blood and appetites. Would that the dead were not dead! But there is grass that must be eaten, pellets that must be chewed, hraka that must be passed, holes that must be dug, sleep that must be slept. Odysseus brings not one man to shore with him. Yet he sleeps sound beside Calypso and when he wakes thinks only of Penelope.”

“The air between us crackles, as it does when you speak of your beloved dead. But it’s hard to know what to say next.”
