For it is not death or hardship that is a fearful thing, but the fear of death and
hardship. Epicetus
It is death that teaches us how useless fear really is. Fear of death
saps our energy and does nothing whatsoever to bring us to a real appreciation of the kind of life that is beyond length of
days. Joan Chittister, OSB
Is death the last step? No, it is the final awakening. Walter
Scott
I remember the story of the old man, who said on his deathbed that he had had a lot of trouble
in his life, most of which had never happened. Winston Churchill
I shall die, but that is all
that I shall do for death; I am not on his payroll. Edna St. Vincent Millay
