“Death alone gives meaning to life, and you will never fully live until you know you must die. And make your peace with that knowledge.”

“By definition, you have to live until you die. Better to make that life as complete and enjoyable an experience as possible, in case death is shite, which I suspect it will be.”

“We must live, you used to say, as if we were never going to die. - Didn't you know that's how everyone lives, including those obsessed with Death?”

“Never give any cause the opportunity to make the will to live die in you.”

“There are only two things you "HAVE TO" do in life. You "HAVE TO" die. You "HAVE TO" live until you die. You make up all the rest.”

“You never know what life is like, until you have lived it.”

“You alone became the outer surface of my life, the side I never see, and you will be that, the unknown part of me, until I die.”

“The life-giving Spirit is the very one who slays you; the first thing the life-giving Spirit says is that you must enter into death, that you must die to – it is this way in order that you many not take Christianity in vain. A life-giving Spirit – that is the invitation; who would not willingly take hold of it! But die first – that is the halt!”

“Man alone, it seems, lives all his life in the knowledge of death. And yet there is more to life than merely waiting for death. For life to have meaning, there must be a purpose. A man must pass something on — otherwise he is useless.”

“It’s not until they tell you you’re going to die soon that you realize how short life is. Time is the most valuable thing in life because it never comes back. And whether you spend it in the arms of a loved one or alone in a prison-cell, life is what you make of it. Dream big.”
