A coward dies a thousand deaths... a soldier dies but once.
Death makes angels of us all and gives us wings where we had shoulders smooth as ravens claws.
I believe that every single event in life happens in an opportunity to choose love over fear.
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.
Absolute silence leads to sadness. It is the image of death.
Could any death be so horrible as birth? Or any decrepitude so awful as childhood in a happy united God-fearing family?
Death may be the greatest of all human blessings.
If we have been pleased with life, we should not be displeased with death, since it comes from the hand of the same master.
There is no hope unmingled with fear, and no fear unmingled with hope.
I could die for you. But I couldn't, and wouldn't, live for you.
Its better to burn out than fade away.
Character building begins in our infancy, and continues until death.
The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.
Death, so called, is a thing which makes men weep, And yet a third of life is pass'd in sleep.
It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live.
The fear of criticism is at the bottom of the destruction of most ideas which never reach the planning and action stage.
A man who is not afraid is not aggressive, a man who has no sense of fear of any kind is really a free, a peaceful man.
It's stasis that kills you off in the end, not ambition.
A man who fears suffering is already suffering from what he fears.
I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.
In Heaven, all the interesting people are missing.
