Have no fear of perfection - you'll never reach it.

When your time comes to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home.

I have gained this from philosophy: that I do without being commanded what others do only from fear of the law.

Do the thing we fear, and death of fear is certain.

It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live.
