A single death is a tragedy; a million deaths is a statistic.

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.

On the plus side, death is one of the few things that can be done just as easily lying down.

If you don't know how to live, why wonder about death?

Death, so called, is a thing which makes men weep, And yet a third of life is pass'd in sleep.

There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure.

All we have to fear is fear itself.

No power is strong enough to be lasting if it labors under the weight of fear.

In the blackest of your moments, wait with no fear.

Don't give in to your fears. If you do, you won't be able to talk to your heart.

A thing is not necessarily true because a man dies for it.

He who controls the past controls the future. He who controls the present controls the past.

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

It is the cause, not the death, that makes the martyr.

No one really knows why they are alive until they know what they'd die for.

It is often said that before you die your life passes before your eyes. It is in fact true. It's called living.

The constant assertion of belief is an indication of fear.

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.

It's stasis that kills you off in the end, not ambition.

No power so effectually robs the mind of all its powers of acting and reasoning as fear.

An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.
