Since change is constant, you wonder if people crave death because it's the only way they can get anything really finished.

Every parting gives a foretaste of death, every reunion a hint of the resurrection.

On neither the sun, nor death, can a man look fixedly.

If I die prematurely I shall be saved from being bored to death at my own success.

If we have been pleased with life, we should not be displeased with death, since it comes from the hand of the same master.
