If today were the last day of my life, Would I want to do what I'm about to do today? And whenever the answer has been "no" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.

I think death is the most wonderful invention of life. It purges the system of these old models that are obsolete.

I believe that a simple and unassuming manner of life is best for everyone, best both for the body and the mind.

Strength is life, Weakness is death.

Life is a flame that is always burning itself out; but it catches fire again every time a child is born. Life is greater than death, and hope than despair.

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