Read through the most famous quotes by topic #mortal




We are chained to this life by a chain of gold, and we dare not sever it for fear of what lies beyond the drop.


Cassandra Clare

It is wrong to bear children out of need, wrong to use a child to alleviate loneliness, wrong to provide purpose in life by reproducing another copy of oneself. It is wrong also to seek immortality by spewing one's germ into the future as though sperm contains your consciousness!


Irvin D. Yalom

Cassandra Clare

You were firing questions at me today, trying to get inside my head. You asked if I believed in God. I told you of course I do- I've always had a strong sense of self. Your house is quiet now, you're sleeping upstairs and I'm alone with this blasted, idiotic book that purports to tally the sum of my life, and fact is, maybe I do. But maybe, ka-lyrra, your God doesn't believe in me. -- From The (Greatly Revised) Black Edition Of The O'Callaghan Book of the Sin Siriche Du

One can have all the comforts of the world, but what use are they if there is no comfort in them?


Seth Grahame-Smith
