Bible

Baldwin, James

One has to pay dearly for immortality; one has to die several times while one is still alive.

Nietzsche, Friedrich

An evil life is a kind of death.

Ovid

'Tis the maddest trick a man can ever play in his whole life, to let his breath sneak out of his body without any more ado, and without so much as a rap o'er the pate, or a kick of the guts; to go out like the snuff of a farthing candle, and die merely of the mulligrubs, or the sullens.

Cervantes, Miguel De

I'd rather get my brains blown out in the wild than wait in terror at the slaughterhouse.

Craig Volk

If a man hasn't discovered something that he will die for, he isn't fit to live.

King Jr. Martin Luther

All that tread, the globe are but a handful to the tribes, that slumber in its bosom.

Bryant, William C.

Never knock on Death's door: ring the bell and run away! Death really hates that!
