Viktor E. Frankl
“It is not for me to pass judgement on those prisoners who put their own people above everyone else. Who can throw a stone at a man who favors his friends under circumstances when, sooner or later, it is a question of life or death? No man should judge unless he asks himself in absolute honesty whether in a similar situation he might not have done the same".”
Viktor E. Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning

Michelle Hodkin
“The ability to heal does not make on good any more than the ability to kill makes one evil. Kill the right people, and you become a hero. Heal the wrong ones, and you become a villain. It is our choices that define us, not our abilities.”
Michelle Hodkin, The Retribution of Mara Dyer

Haruki Murakami
“moartea nu se afla la polul opus al vietii ,ci face parte din viata”

Sebastian Barry
“No one minds life as long as they are not trying to leave it. Nor death, as long as they are not dying.”
Sebastian Barry, Old God's Time

Peter Høeg
“Дважды случалось, что я, уехав в Гренландию, по полгода не видела своего отражения в зеркале. По пути домой я старательно избегала зеркал в самолетах и аэропортах. Стоя потом перед зеркалом в своей квартире, я очень ясно видела физическое выражение хода времени: первые седые волосы, паутинку морщин, более глубокие и отчетливые тени выступающих костей.
Никакая другая мысль не была для меня более успокоительной, чем сознание того, что я умру. В эти минуты прозрения — а себя можно увидеть таким, какой ты есть, только если смотришь на себя как на чужого человека, — все отчаяние, вся веселость, вся депрессия исчезают и сменяются спокойствием. Для меня смерть вовсе не была пугающей, она не была состоянием или событием, которое придет и поразит меня. Она была скорее сосредоточенностью на текущем моменте, поддержкой, союзником, помогающим мыслями быть в настоящем.”
Peter Høeg, Smilla's Sense of Snow

Haruki Murakami
“Cu cat trec anii,parca se lungeste si timpul,asemeni unei umbre la amurg .E trist ce spun eu acum ,dar e adevarat (...) Mi-e foarte teama ca,intr-o buna zi,intunericul va inghiti umbra cu totul.”
Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood

“everyone says we live once, but the truth is we live daily but die once!!”

“Astfel alunecam spre moarte,prin amurgul din care caldura zilei pierea treptat.”
F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby

“...lo asustó la sospecha tardía de que es la vida, más que la muerte, la que no tiene límites”

“Защото докато сме млади, ние не разбираме, че животът продължава, движен от нашите мъртви. Едва когато загубим скъп човек, тогава ние намираме себе си.”
Блага Димитрова, Blaga Dimitrova

Vinita Kothari
“Life is like a marathon
There is risk of losing
If you walk slow;
But that doesn’t mean that
Everyone who walks fast wins”
Vinita Kothari, Thought provoking thoughts: A perspective to think life!

“Teenagers of every ilk also operate under the dark cloud of knowing that the easiest part of their lives is over and the terribly difficult years are about to commence. They understand they are beginning to make career and character defining decisions that will indelibly shape their future. Sensing that they must make life-defining decisions when they lack the maturity to apprehend the ramifications of their actions, heightens their pressurized anxiety.”
Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls

Lutz Bassmann
“We zijn zakken.
Vanbinnen zitten we slordig volgestouwd met een weke machinerie die instaat voor onze huishouding. Dit samenstel van machines maakt het ons mogelijk te bewegen, met de ogen te knipperen of te lopen, krijgt het voor elkaar dat we niet één keer vergeten te ademen, laat ons weer bij bewustzijn komen na het slapen en dwingt ons om tot elke prijs vol te houden, ongeacht de omstandigheden, zelfs als die omstandigheden beestig bar zijn. We zijn gedwongen om tot elke prijs vol te houden tot het uur van onze dood.”
Lutz Bassmann

Mitch Albom
“Morrie continued, "most of us all walk around as if we're sleepwalking. We really don't experience the world fully, because we're half-asleep, doing things we automatically think we have to do."
And facing death changes all that?
"Oh, yes. You strip away all the stuff and you focus on the essentials. When you realize you are going to die, you see everything much differently.
He sighed. "Learn how to die, and you learn how to live.”
Mitch Albom, Tuesdays With Morrie
