Wenn die Kraft zu Ende geht, ist die Erlösung eine Gnade.
Der Tod öffnet unbekannte Türen.
Solange wir leben, werden auch sie leben, denn sie sind nun ein Teil von uns, wenn wir uns an sie erinnern.
Jüdisches Sprichwort
Weinet nicht an meinem Grabe, dass ich Euch verlassen habe. Gottes Wille muss geschehen, wir werden uns einst wiedersehen.
Immer enger, leise, leise,
Ziehen sich die Lebenskreise,
Schwindet hin, was prahlt und prunkt,
Schwindet Hoffen, Hassen, Lieben,
Und ist nichts in Sicht geblieben
Als der letzte dunkle Punkt.
Theodor Fontane
Es kann nicht immer so bleiben, hier unter dem wechselnden Mond, es blüht eine Zeit und verwelket, was mit uns die Erde bewohnt.
Wir haben ihn geliebt.
Wir haben ihn geehrt.
Wir werden ihn vermissen.
Auch wenn deine kleinen Füße die Erde nie berührten, sind deine Spuren trotzdem da.
Wir sind vom gleichen Stoff,
aus dem die Träume sind
und unser kurzes Leben ist eingebettet
in einen langen Schlaf.
Shakespeare
