Think of all those ages through which men have had the courage to die, and then remember that we have actually fallen to talking about having the courage to live.

Gilbert K. Chesterton

For a man can lose neither the past nor the future; for how can one take from him that which is not his? So remember these two points: first, that each thing is of like form from everlasting and comes round again in its cycle, and that it signifies not whether a man shall look upon the same things for a hundred years or two hundred, or for an infinity of time; second, that the longest lived and the shortest lived man, when they come to die, lose one and the same thing.

Marcus Aurelius
