Death Quote by Elie Wiesel — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Never shall I forget those flames which consumed my faith forever.”

“My faceless neighbor spoke up:”

“If the Almighty is the Almighty, the last word for each of us belongs to Him.”

“All my life, until today, I have been content to ask questions. All the while knowing that the real questions, those that concern the creator and his creation, have no answers. I'll go even farther and say that there is a level at which only the questions are eternal, the answers never are. And so, the patient that I am, more charitable, repeats: 'Since God is, He is to be found in the questions as well as in the answers.”

“There may be times when we are powerless to prevent injustice, but there must never be a time when we fail to protest.”

“Man comes closer to God through the questions he asks Him, he liked to say.”

“What will I be doing in twenty years' time? I'll be dead, darling! Are you crazy?”

“We're all ghosts. We all carry, inside us, people who came before us.”

“There is a child - a baby - who long since kicked off her blankets. Her skin is ashen and her mouth open in a perpetual yet silent scream. She isn't old enough to roll over, to sit up, to climb. So she lies there kicking her fat legs against the footboard of the crib, eternally calling for her mother. For food. For flesh.”

“We theorize that if these disruptions continue to happen, eventually the separate realities will begin to compete with our primary reality for dominance, and there will end up being no safe reality to live in.”

“We're in the Maker's keeping. Even if we die trying, death is just another way out. But you? You'll just turn to dust.”

“How sad, ye Gods, how sad the world is at evening, how mysterious the mists over the swamps! You will know it when you have wandered astray in those mists, when you have suffered greatly before dying, when you have walked through the world carrying an unbearable burden. You know it too when you are weary and ready to leave this earth without regret; its mists; its swamps and its rivers; ready to give yourself into the arms of death with a light heart, knowing that death alone can comfort you.”
