The 'kingdom of Heaven' is a condition of the heart - not something that comes 'upon the earth' or 'after death.'

Whenever death may surprise us, let it be welcome if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.

One death is a tragedy one million is a statistic.

Let us beware of saying that death is the opposite of life. The living being is only a species of the dead, and a very rare species.

Ordinary people seem not to realize that those who really apply themselves in the right way to philosophy are directly and of their own accord preparing themselves for dying and death.
