No life can be compared to another Life unless both refer to Death! Even if a Life is different from another Life, it exists, as Life, only by referring to Death, because all other Lives it would refer to finally lead to the last referent which is...

Quote by Sorin Cerin about life, death

Whose life, in fact, Death’s or Life’s? I say this because, due to the mirror, we can talk about the Life of Life or the Life of Death, but also about the Death of Life or the Death of Death. No matter what we would talk about, one thing is...

Quote by Sorin Cerin about death, life, things

Even we, when we look into a mirror we make refer to ourselves, but through the mirror. Does the real us stand in front of the mirror which reflects the unreal us? How else is real Life reflected into the unreal Death? One thing is certain and...

Quote by Sorin Cerin about death, real estate, life, things

It is old age, rather than death, that is to be contrasted with life. Old age is life's parody, whereas death transforms life into a destiny: in a way it preserves it by giving it the absolute dimension. Death does away with time.

Quote by Simone de Beauvoir about olderness, death, age, old, life, destiny, absolute, time

We, people, are dual beings, and our world is a world of Life and Death, of Good and Evil, etc. If we weren’t dual beings and we were thinking based on a Logic Coefficient higher than two, let’s admit it would be five, then, beside Life and Death,...

Quote by Sorin Cerin about good, death, character, world, life, logic, thinking, good luck, people

If it hadn’t been for Death, then there wouldn’t be Life either, and as Life feeds Death, is possible that Death in return would feed Life at the cosmic lunch of the human feelings.

Quote by Sorin Cerin about death, feelings, life, human imperfections

In order to figure out how much your life values, how you have managed to capitalize it, think about tomorrow could be the last day. But not the last day of your life - because then you could find any comfort: you have written something, you help...

Quote by Mircea Eliade about life, contentment, history, day, death, nation, earth, help, order, country

Through Death, absolutely anything receives a connotation opposed to Life, but nevertheless, Life would never be Alive without Its Death which bestows on it its full shine, as Death wouldn’t be what it is.

Quote by Sorin Cerin about death, life

Nevertheless we refer to death as we live our entire lives through it. What else could life be than our own reflection in what we are not, so in death? What else does life refer to if not Death?

Quote by Sorin Cerin about death, life

We cannot imagine Life without Death, because the entire Life rests on Death, otherwise it wouldn’t exist. It wouldn’t exist exactly because it wouldn’t have any degree of comparison to itself.

Quote by Sorin Cerin about life, death

Death is all that Life isn’t as Life is all that Death isn’t but both of them define each other eternally into vanity!

Quote by Sorin Cerin about death, proudness, vanity, life

But what can be more resembling to Life than Death? Nothing! And yet, they both obey a destiny which is a shadow of God, as we are too, except that this shadow can no longer be defined as an opposite to the other two, but as destiny, because we...

Quote by Sorin Cerin about life, shadow, destiny, logic, death, god, nothing

We know there is death only because it is the opposite of Life, and we can recognize only one opposite because we think on the basis of a bivalent logic of good and bad, beautiful and ugly, etc. How would Life or Death look like if they had three...

Quote by Sorin Cerin about destiny, death, shadow, logic, knowledge, bad luck, life, bad, god, nothing

It is generally thought that life is the opposite of death, yet this is not the case. Life has no opposite, it is thus that at birth, the soul takes a body which it then deposits at death.

PQuote by Placide Gaboury about life, death, body, soul, thinking

Should I understand that love is the reverse of out life, that it is death? That we live in this life in which we hope to have the chance to love, so to die? Let me drink from the glass of your voluptuousness down to the depths of my being so...

Quote by Sorin Cerin about love, death, angels, proudness, vanity, drinking, life, contentment, destiny, world

To define an opposite, it’s necessary to have only one opposable element, and in the worlds where there are more than two opposable elements, the singularity of the opposable element in comparison with the other disappears, in the sense that Life...

Quote by Sorin Cerin about order, death, common sense, sense, life

Where else can be seen more Death than in the world of Life where each moment exists only through its reference to Death?

Quote by Sorin Cerin about death, moment, world, life

When faith is kneeling by his bed of death, And innocence is closing up his eyes, Now if thou would'st, when all have given him over, From death to life, thou might'st him yet recover.

Quote by Michael Drayton about faith, innocence, death, eyes, life

We have been permitted to turn our back on the frailty of life. I mean we live so much longer, and the constant presence of death is part of life.

Quote by Katherine Dunn about life, death

...probably nowhere is more Life than in the world of Death, where its entire being rests on Life.
