If God was dead, how could I feel this bad?

I’m not running away from my responsibilities. I’m running to them. There’s nothing negative about running away to save my life.

You're an intelligent person of great moral character who has taken a very courageous stand. I'm an intelligent person with no moral character at all, so I'm in an ideal position to appreciate it.

I'm gonna live forever, or die trying.

He had decided to live forever or die in the attempt.

Suppose everyone on our side felt that way?

Maybe a long life does have to be filled with many unpleasant conditions if it's to seem long. But in that event, who wants one?
