Im Not Afraid To Die What Im Afraid Of Is Having

“One wants to live, of course, indeed one only stays alive by virtue of the fear of death, but I think, as I thought then, that it is better to die violently and not too old.”

“I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it.”

“For to fear death, my friends, is only to think ourselves wise without really being wise, for it is to think that we know what we do not know. For no one knows whether death may not be the greatest good that can happen to man.”

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

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

“The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”
