Thanatophobia Quotes

“He begged before he died, you know. Your mighty Tolyev. You all beg, Nikita. That's what they don't tell you. When you see the end coming, past all the bluff and bluster, the thees and thous, in that final moment, you all beg like fucking children. And you die like fucking dogs.”
― Jay Kristoff, Empire of the Damned

“I am a spirit

In a tunnel of plight

I will never reach the end

A cry for help

Hoping to reach the other side

My existence remains

A perpetual whisper

Until the end of time.”

“I often ask myself about the moment I'll die
It's inevitable, something I can't defy
I would die a death the same as the rest, forced to comply
Darkness will cover my eyes, until I'm blind

Meanwhile, I find myself under the pressures of life
Why should I comply with society's compromise?
Give up my passions and drives just to survive?
They want me to work until I die,
and waste away on this dreary glide.”
― Blake Sevann

― Blake Sevann

“If your life becomes about death, are you still living?”
― Blake Sevann

“The antidote to thanatophobia is not avoidance but engagement.”
