Its better to burn out than fade away.
Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish its source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings.

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me.

We should never negotiate out of fear, but we should never fear to negotiate.
If we have been pleased with life, we should not be displeased with death, since it comes from the hand of the same master.

Fear not death for the sooner we die, the longer we shall be immortal.
A single death is a tragedy; a million deaths is a statistic.
In Heaven, all the interesting people are missing.
Courage is not the absence of fear it is inspiring others to move beyond it.
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
