- Change theme
Quotes by Elisabeth Kublerross
- I didn't fully realize it at the time, but the goal of my life was profoundly molded by this experience - to help produce, in the next generation, more Mother Teresas and less Hitlers.
- I say to people who care for people who are dying, if you really love that person and want to help them, be with them when their end comes close. Sit with them - you don't even have to talk. You don't have to do anything but really be there with them.
- I've told my children that when I die, to release balloons in the sky to celebrate that I graduated. For me, death is a graduation.
- It is difficult to accept death in this society because it is unfamiliar. In spite of the fact that it happens all the time, we never see it.
- It is not the end of the physical body that should worry us. Rather, our concern must be to live while we're alive - to release our inner selves from the spiritual death that comes with living behind a facade designed to conform to external definitions of who and what we are.
- It's only when we truly know and understand that we have a limited time on earth - and that we have no way of knowing when our time is up, we will then begin to live each day to the fullest, as if it was the only one we had.
