Spreuken over Dood

Death ne'er can fail the man who wills to die

Know one knows whether death, which people fear to be the greatest evil, may not be the greatest good.

On a large enough time line, the survival rate for everyone drops to zero.

The soldier who fights to death never dies, but the soldier who fights for existence never truly exists.

To fear death, my friends, is only to think ourselves wise, without being wise: for it is to think that we know what we do not know. For anything that men can tell, death may be the greatest good that can happen to them: but they fear it as if they knew quite well that it was the greatest of evils. And what is this but that shameful ignorance of thinking that we know what we do not know?
