Martin Luther King, Jr.The day is not far distant when the man who dies leaving behind him millions of available wealth, which was free for him to administer during life, will pass away unwept, unhonored, and unsung, no matter to what uses he leave the dross which he cannot take with him. Of such as these the public verdict will then be: The man who dies thus rich dies disgraced.

Jesus dies in pain, dishonor, mockery, the object of universal cursing - the most horrible death that one could fear.

If Socrates lived and died like a philosopher, Jesus lived and died like a god.
Jean-Jacques RousseauDeath is the inseparable antecedent of life; the seed dies in order to produce the plant, and earth itself is rent asunder and dies at the birth of Dionusos.

Robert EmmetAnd the reward when good people die - her mother paused, swallowed, paused again - the reward when good people die is that they get to help make the people in their families who haven't been born yet. They pick out what kinds of traits they want the new people to have - they give them all the raw material of their souls, like their talents and their brains and their potential. Of course it's up to the new ones, once they're born, what they'll use and what they won't but that's what everyone who dies is doing, I think.
Dara HornIn making our decisions, we must use the brains that God has given us. But we must also use our hearts which He also gave us.
