Death Quote by Antal Szerb — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Still, they have one thing I envy. Humans, if nothing else, have the good sense to die.”

“There comes a time when we realize that our parents cannot save themselves or save us, that everyone who wades through time eventually gets dragged out to sea by the undertow- that, in short, we are all going.”

“The souls of humans have become poor and transparent things.”

“Yet the story of Orpheus, it occurs to me, is not just about the desire of the living to resuscitate the dead but about the ways in which the dead drag us along into their shadowy realm because we cannot let them go. So we follow them into the Underworld, descending, descending, until one day we turn and make our way back.”

“The bird is gone, and in what meadow does it now sing?”

“For some folks death is release, and for others death is an abomination, a terrible thing. But in the end, I'm there for all of them.”
