Dead Man Quotes

We all run on two clocks. One is the outside clock, which ticks away our decades and brings us ceaselessly to the dry season. The other is the inside clock, where you are your own timekeeper and determine your own chronology, your own internal weather and your own rate of living. Sometimes the inner clock runs itself out long before the outer one, and you see a dead man going through the motions of living Picture Quote #1

Then he laughed and she laughed. And quivering with the movement of the train, the dead man seemed to laugh too Picture Quote #1

And little he knew of the things that ink may do, how it can mark a dead man’s thought for the wonder of later years, and tell of happening that are gone clean away, and be a voice for us out of the dark of time, and save many a fragile thing from the pounding of heavy ages; or carry to us, over the rolling centuries, even a song from lips long dead on forgotten hills Picture Quote #1

As long as a man stays alive he can’t tell what chances will pop up next. But a dead man signs no checks Picture Quote #1

Nothing is truer in a sense than a funeral oration: It tells precisely what the dead man should have been Picture Quote #1

The man without a chin, no stamina, dead man, broken man, whatever. On your way to the top, you always get some criticism. Criticism is a great motivation. Failure is not an option to me Picture Quote #1

Well, I guess I am about the livest dead man you ever saw; although I was once asked to accept a coffin Picture Quote #1

An orphan’s curse would drag to hell, a spirit from on high; but oh! more horrible than that, is a curse in a dead man’s eye! Picture Quote #1

If it’s true that every seven years each cell in your body dies and is replaced, then I have truly inherited my life from a dead man; and the misdeeds of those times have been forgiven, and are buried with his bones Picture Quote #1

Any live man is better than any dead man but no live or dead man is very much better than any other live or dead man Picture Quote #1

The soul takes nothing with her to the other world but her education and culture; and these, it is said, are of the greatest service or of the greatest injury to the dead man, at the very beginning of his journey hither Picture Quote #1

He seemed so certain about everything, didn’t he? And yet none of his certainties was worth one hair of a woman’s head. He wasn’t even sure he was alive, because he was living like a dead man Picture Quote #1

The finest emotion of which we are capable is the mystic emotion. Herein lies the germ of all art and all true science. Anyone to whom this feeling is alien, who is no longer capable of wonderment and lives in a state of fear is a dead man Picture Quote #1

For my own part, I would rather be in company with a dead man than with an absent one; for if the dead man gives me no pleasure, at least he shows me no contempt; whereas the absent one, silently indeed, but very plainly, tells me that he does not think me worth his attention Picture Quote #1

Nobody heard him, the dead man, but still he lay moaning. I was much further out than you thought, and not waving but drowning. I was much too far out all my life, and not waving but drowning Picture Quote #1

And what goes on in the head of a walking dead man? What personal failure could he possibly fear more than death itself? Picture Quote #1

The miracle of Sunday is that a dead man lives. The miracle of Saturday is that the eternal Son of God lies dead Picture Quote #1

$And in that fraction of a second before anything actually happened, Santino Corleone knew he was a dead man Picture Quote #1$

In reality, it is more fruitful to wound than to kill. While the dead man lies still, counting only one man less, the wounded man is a progressive drain upon his side Picture Quote #1

You are done for - a living dead man - not when you stop loving but stop hating. Hatred preserves: in it, in its chemistry, resides the mystery of life Picture Quote #1

I saw corpses, and grew used to their unimportant look, for a dead man without any of the panoply of death is a desperately insignificant object Picture Quote #1
