Death Quote by Gabrielle Zevin — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“It's a tragic fact to die in an accident”

“Saying you're through with romance is like saying you're done with living, Betty. Life is better with a little romance, you know.”

“If this were a novel, I'd stop reading right now. I'd throw it across the room.”

You're born, you grow up, you're happy, you wait, then you die. Goodbye! Man or woman, you'll never return to this earth! And yet each of us bears within him the fierce, unrealizable longing for eternity, each of us is a kind of universe within the universe, and each of us soon vanishes completely into the dunghill of new organisms. Plants, animals, men, stars, worlds, everything quickens, then dies, in order to transform itself. And nothing ever returns, whether insect, man, or planet!”

“The Skeleton”

“I held her close for only a short time, but after she was gone, I'd see her smile on the face of a perfect stranger and I knew she would be there with me all the rest of my days.”

“Copulation is no more foul to me than death is.”

“If I'm to die a mortal, why shouldn't the same fate be given to all, no matter how long they've lived or how important they think they are? All things must eventually come to an end.”
