When death is certain, it is best to sacrifice oneself for a good cause.

You must not fear death, my lads; defy him, and you drive him into the enemy's ranks.

Death is nothing; but to live defeated and without glory is to die every day.

Just as a well-filled day brings blessed sleep, so a well-employed life brings a blessed death.

Life and death are too resolute, too implacable to be accidental.

Death is for many of us the gate of hell; but we are inside on the way out, not outside on the way in.
