  • Our care should not be to have lived long as to have lived enough.

    Life   Happiness  
    "Personal Quotes/ Biography". www.imdb.com.
  • You want to live-but do you know how to live? You are scared of dying-and, tell me, is the kind of life you lead really any different from being dead?

    Life  
  • The most happy ought to wish for death.

    Wish  
  • Death is a release from and an end of all pains.

    "Of Consolation to Marcia". Book by Seneca the Younger, 1635.
  • What madness it is for a man to starve himself to enrich his heir, and so turn a friend into an enemy! For his joy at your death will be proportioned to what you leave him.

    Men  
  • Rehearse death. To say this is to tell a person to rehearse his freedom. A person who has learned how to die has unlearned how to be a slave. He is above, or at any rate, beyond the reach of, all political powers.

  • He who does not want to die should not want to live. For life is tendered to us with the proviso of death. Life is the way to this destination.

  • Death takes us piecemeal, not at a gulp.

  • Death either destroys or unhusks us. If it means liberation, better things await us when our burden s gone: if destruction, nothing at all awaits us; blessings and curses are abolished.

    Mean  
  • Death is sometimes a punishment, often a gift; to many it has been a favor.

  • Death is the wish of some, the relief of many, and the end of all. It sets the slave at liberty, carries the banished man home, and places all mortals on the same level, insomuch that life itself were a punishment without it.

    Home   Men  
  • Just where death is expecting you is something we cannot know; so, for your part, expect him everywhere.

    Justice  
  • Every day, therefore, should be regulated as if it were the one that brings up the rear, the one that rounds out and completes our lives.

    Life   Should  
  • There is nothing that Nature has made necessary which is more easy than death; we are longer a-coming into the world than going out of it; and there is not any minute of our lives wherein we may not reasonably expect it. Nay, it is but a momen'ts work, the parting of soul and body. What a shame is it then to stand in fear of anything so long that is over so soon!

  • Most men ebb and flow in wretchedness between the fear of death and the hardship of life; they are unwilling to live, and yet they do not know how to die.

    Life  
  • Death is a punishment to some, to others a gift and to many a favour.

  • What need is there to weep over parts of life? The whole of it calls for tears.

    Life  
    "Moral Essays: Ad Marciam De Consolatione". Translated by J. W. Basore,
  • There is nothing after death, and death itself is nothing.

  • The worst evil of all is to leave the ranks of the living before one dies.

  • The day which we fear as our last is but the birthday of eternity.

    "Personal Quotes/ Biography". www.imdb.com.
  • Death is the wish of some, the relief of many, and the end of all.

    "Biography/ Personal Quotes". www.imdb.com.
  • Death's the discharge of our debt of sorrow.

  • Throughout the whole of life one must continue to learn to live and what will amaze you even more, throughout life you must learn to die. Seneca (Roman philosopher)

  • One must take all one's life to learn how to leave, and what will perhaps make you wonder more, one must take all one's life to learn how to die.

  • Leisure without literature is death and burial alive.

  • The final hour when we cease to exist does not itself bring death; it merely of itself completes the death-process. We reach death at that moment, but we have been a long time on the way.

  • Consider, when you are enraged at any one, what you would probably think if he should die during the dispute.
