“The day which we fear as our last is but the birthday of eternity”

“Our society must make it right and possible for old people not to fear the young or be deserted by them, for the test of a civilization is the way that it cares for its helpless members”

“Let no man fear to die, we love to sleep all, and death is but the sounder sleep.”

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

“The fear of death often proves mortal, and sets people on methods to save their lives, which infallibly destroy them”

“The religious man fears, the man of honor scorns, to do an ill action”
