“Do good deeds while you are still alive. Otherwise, there will be no VIP place for you in heaven.”

“Heaven was the place where you kept alive the dreams of your memories.”

“Are you alive, do you still exist?”

“Heaven, n. A place where the wicked cease from troubling you with talk of their personal affairs, and the good listen with attention while you expound your own.”

“If you are engaged in doing good deeds and go on doing good acts, you will have good sleep, good appetite and bad thoughts will not cross your mind. Otherwise, you will always be criticizing others. In inaction, your minds will always be engaged in thinking critically of others. Karma – activity – is the only thing which can drive out all evils.”

“Not to live as if you had endless years ahead of you. Death overshadows you. While you're alive and able—be good.”

“Live for something! Do good and leave behind you a monument of virtue that the storm of time can never destroy. Write your name in kindness, love, and mercy on the hearts of the thousands you come in contact with, year by year, and you will never be forgotten. Your name, your deeds, will be as legible on the hearts you leave behind, as the stars on the brow of evening. Good deeds will shine as the stars of heaven.”

“If you don't break your ropes while you're alive, do you think ghosts will do it after?”

“You think this is a trap then?" the Count asked.
"I always think everything is a trap until proven otherwise," the Prince answered. "Which is why I'm still alive.”

“Staying alive is nice, but you can’t do that forever. It’s how you live the life you have while you have it.”
