I do not see why man should not be just as cruel as nature

A thing is not necessarily true because a man dies for it.

Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. And that no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dreams, because every second of the search is a second's encounter with God and with eternity.

It is the cause, not the death, that makes the martyr.

Many people would sooner die than think; In fact, they do so.

Life and death are one thread, the same line viewed from different sides.

A single death is a tragedy; a million deaths is a statistic.

Pride is an admission of weakness; it secretly fears all competition and dreads all rivals.

The constant assertion of belief is an indication of fear.

It's not that I'm afraid to die, I just don't want to be there when it happens.

For a man who has done his natural duty, death is as natural as sleep.

There is nothing to fear but fear itself.

We should never negotiate out of fear, but we should never fear to negotiate.

Fear not death for the sooner we die, the longer we shall be immortal.

A man who fears suffering is already suffering from what he fears.

One is never afraid of the unknown; one is afraid of the known coming to an end.

If you are afraid of being lonely, don't try to be right.

My feet is my only courage

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. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

When desire dies, fear is born.

If you don't know how to live, why wonder about death?
