He lives who dies to win a lasting name.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I suppose that every one of us hopes secretly for immortality; to leave, I mean, a name behind him which will live forever in this world, whatever he may be doing, himself, in the next.
He that fears death loses the joys of life.
He who doesn't fear death dies only once.
He that lives to live forever, never fears dying.
The tragedy of life is not that man loses but that he almost wins.
He who lives only to benefit himself confers on the world a benefit when he dies.
We call that person who has lost his father, an orphan; and a widower that man who has lost his wife. But that man who has known the immense unhappiness of losing a friend, by what name do we call him? Here every language is silent and holds its peace in impotence.
Never throughout history has a man who lived a life of ease left a name worth remembering.
The name of a man is a numbing blow from which he never recovers.
He lives most life whoever breathes most air.
