There is no hope unmingled with fear, and no fear unmingled with hope.
No one really knows why they are alive until they know what they'd die for.
A thing is not necessarily true because a man dies for it.
One is never afraid of the unknown; one is afraid of the known coming to an end.
Don't give in to your fears. If you do, you won't be able to talk to your heart.
Tell your friend that in his death, a part of you dies and goes with him. Wherever he goes, you also go. He will not be alone.
Where there is no freedom, there is death and destruction.
Absolute silence leads to sadness. It is the image of death.
It's stasis that kills you off in the end, not ambition.
Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. And that no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dreams, because every second of the search is a second's encounter with God and with eternity.
It is often said that before you die your life passes before your eyes. It is in fact true. It's called living.
Death makes angels of us all and gives us wings where we had shoulders smooth as ravens claws.
Our strength lies in our intensive attacks and our barbarity...After all, who today remembers the genocide of the Armenians?
Fear is pain arising from the anticipation of evil.
Death and love are the two wings that bear the good man to heaven.
It is better to be feared than loved, if you cannot be both.
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
When desire dies, fear is born.
It's not that I'm afraid to die, I just don't want to be there when it happens.
Every man's life ends the same way. It is only the details of how he lived and how he died that distinguish one man from another.
I'm the one that has to die when it's time for me to die, so let me live my life, the way I want to.
