I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it.

Let us beware of saying that death is the opposite of life. The living being is only a species of the dead, and a very rare species.

To be, or not to be, that is the question.

Some die too young, some die too old; the precept sounds strange, but die at the right age.

You're going to die. You're going to be dead. It could be 20 years, it could be tomorrow, anytime. So am I. I mean, we're just going to be gone. The world's going to go on without us. All right now. You do your job in the face of that, and how seriously you take yourself you decide for yourself.

The hour of departure has arrived and we go our ways; I to die, and you to live. Which is better? Only God knows.
