"It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live."

"Think of yourself as dead. You have lived your life. Now, take what's left and live it properly."

"Dig deep within yourself, for there is a fountain of goodness ever ready to flow if you will keep digging."

"Everything that happens is either endurable or not. If it's endurable, then endure it. Stop complaining. If it's not endurable, then stop complaining. Your destruction will mean its end."

"Do not act as if thou wert going to live ten thousand years. Death hangs over thee. While thou hast life, while thou art able, be good."
