Lord Byron Quotes

Should this my firm persuasion of the soul's immortality prove to be a mere delusion, it is at least a pleasing delusion, and I will cherish it to my last breath.

(Socrates) said there were only two possibilities. Either the soul is immortal or, after death, things would be again as blank as they were before we were born.

The doctrine of immortality rests upon human affection. We love; therefore, we wish to live.

I have good hope that there is something after death.

Death is the waiting-room where we robe ourselves for immortality.

When you look at the basis for the immortality of the soul, you have these foundationless speculations and really, no intelligent reason for believing that there's life after death.

That which is the foundation of all our hopes and of all our fears; all our hopes and fears which are of any consideration; I mean a Future Life.

The grave Is but the threshold of eternity.

Because I could not stop for death, He kindly stopped for me; The carriage held but just ourselves and immortality.

Death is not extinction. Neither the soul nor the body is extinguished or put out of existence.

That every man after the life in the world lives to eternity, is evident from this, that man is then spiritual, and no longer natural, and that the spiritual man, separated from the natural, remains such as he is to eternity, for man's state cannot be changed after death.

The belief of immortality is impressed upon all men, and all men act under an impression of it, however they may talk, and though, perhaps, they may be scarcely sensible of it.

I believe in an immortal soul. Science has proved that nothing disintegrates into nothingness. Life and soul, therefore, cannot disintegrate into nothingness, and so are immortal.

Life is real! Life is earnest! And the grave is not its goal; Dust thou art, to dust returnest, Was not spoken of the soul.

Every natural love will rise again and live forever in this country: but none will rise again until it has been buried.

What reason have atheists for saying that we cannot rise again? That what has never been, should be, or that what has been, should be again? Is it more difficult to come into being than to return to it.

I think it is impossible for human minds to think of Death as a final, irrevocable end to life.

The soul is immortal- well then, if I shall always live, I must have lived before, lived for a whole eternity.

Religion teaches the dangerous nonsense that death is not the end.
