I am bound to add that the excess in too little has ever proved in me more dangerous than the excess in too much; the last may cause indigestion, but the first causes death.
Giacomo Casanova
The enemy fought with savage fury, and met death with all its horrors, without shrinking or complaining: not one asked to be spared, but fought as long as they could stand or sit.
Davy Crockett
Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside us while we live.
Norman Cousins
The tragedy of life is in what dies inside a man while he lives - the death of genuine feeling, the death of inspired response, the awareness that makes it possible to feel the pain or the glory of other men in yourself.
Norman Cousins
If I take death into my life, acknowledge it, and face it squarely, I will free myself from the anxiety of death and the pettiness of life - and only then will I be free to become myself.
Martin Heidegger
I am able to follow my own death step by step. Now I move softly towards the end.
Pope John XXIII
Communism is the death of the soul. It is the organization of total conformity - in short, of tyranny - and it is committed to making tyranny universal.
Adlai E. Stevenson
Without fullness of experience, length of days is nothing. When fullness of life has been achieved, shortness of days is nothing. That is perhaps why the young have usually so little fear of death; they live by intensities that the elderly have forgotten.
Lewis Mumford
Foolish men imagine that because judgment for an evil thing is delayed, there is no justice; but only accident here below. Judgment for an evil thing is many times delayed some day or two, some century or two, but it is sure as life, it is sure as death.
Thomas Carlyle
Life is a great sunrise. I do not see why death should not be an even greater one.
Vladimir Nabokov
There's nothing wrong in suffering, if you suffer for a purpose. Our revolution didn't abolish danger or death. It simply made danger and death worthwhile.
H. G. Wells
Death is one moment, and life is so many of them.
Tennessee Williams
Death is a delightful hiding place for weary men.
Herodotus
Mendacity is a system that we live in. Liquor is one way out an death's the other.
Tennessee Williams
Whether for life or death, do your own work well.
John Ruskin
For a man who has done his natural duty, death is as natural as sleep.
George Santayana
There is no cure for birth and death save to enjoy the interval.
George Santayana
Kurt and I weren't the closest of friends, but I knew him well enough to be devastated by his death. For such a quiet person, he was so excited about having a child.
Layne Staley
Andrew Wood's death changed things for a few weeks. I probably got even heavier into drugs after that.
Layne Staley
Prepare for death, if here at night you roam, and sign your will before you sup from home.
Samuel Johnson
