It is better to risk starving to death then surrender. If you give up on your dreams, what's left?

Men are convinced of your arguments, your sincerity, and the seriousness of your efforts only by your death.

Love, we say, is life but love without hope and faith is agonizing death.

Death is not the worst that can happen to men.

There will one day spring from the brain of science a machine or force so fearful in its potentialities, so absolutely terrifying, that even man, the fighter, who will dare torture and death in order to inflict torture and death, will be appalled, and so abandon war forever.

It is not the end of the physical body that should worry us. Rather, our concern must be to live while we're alive - to release our inner selves from the spiritual death that comes with living behind a facade designed to conform to external definitions of who and what we are.

Death is not extinguishing the light it is only putting out the lamp because the dawn has come.
