Immortality Quotes

Immortality is the condition of a dead man who doesn't believe he is dead

The only thing wrong with immortality is that it tends to go on forever.
Herb Caen

Literature is the immortality of speech
August Wilhelm von Schlegel

Immortality: A toy which people cry for, And on their knees apply for, Dispute, contend and lie for, And if allowed Would be right proud Eternally to die for.

Immortality is what nature possesses without effort and without anybody's assistance, and immortality is what the mortals must therefore try to achieve if they want to live up to the world into which they were born, to live up to the things which surround them and to whose company they are admitted for a short while.

Immortality no longer interests the weary old man at all.

I don't want to achieve immortality through my work; I want to achieve immortality through not dying.

The first condition of immortality is death.
Stanislaw J. Lec

To become truly immortal, a work of art must escape all human limits: logic and common sense will only interfere. But once these barriers are broken, it will enter the realms of childhood visions and dreams
Giorgio de Chirico

Today we bury his remains in the earth as a seed of immortality. Our hearts are full of sadness, yet at the same time (full) of joyful hope and profound gratitude.
