Be of good cheer about death, and know this of a truth, that no evil can happen to a good man, either in life or after death.

The hour of departure has arrived, and we go our separate ways, I to die, and you to live. Which of these two is better only God knows.

No one knows whether death may not be the greatest of all blessings for a man, yet men fear it as if they knew it was the greatest of evils.

To fear death, gentlemen, is no other than to think oneself wise when one is not, to think one knows what one does not know.

All this talk about equality. The only thing people really have in common is that they are all going to die.

The apathy of the people is enough to make every statue leap from its pedestal and hasten the resurrection of the dead.

I'm not afraid of death; I just don't want to be there when it happens.

Death doesn't really worry me that much, i'm not frightened about it... I just don't want to be there when it happens

I will not eat oysters. I want my food dead. Not sick. Not wounded. Dead.

I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.

To fear death, gentlemen, is no other then to think oneself wise when one is not, to think one knows what one does not know.

The safest course is to do nothing against one's conscience. With this secret, we can enjoy life and have no fear from death.

"Hear what little Red-Eye saith: "Nag, come up and dance with death!"
