The reward of great men is that, long after they have died, one is not quite sure that they are dead.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.
For tis not in mere death that men die most.
Some men are alive simply because it is against the law to kill them.
It's not just dead men who tell no tales. Live ones don't have much to say for themselves, either.
Men are never really willing to die except for the sake of freedom: therefore they do not believe in dying completely.
If a man can bridge the gap between life and death, if he can live on after he's dead, then maybe he was a great man.
It matters not how a man dies, but how he lives. The act of dying is not of importance, it lasts so short a time.
Every man of genius is considerably helped by being dead.
Every man dies. Not every man really lives.
Death is a delightful hiding place for weary men.
