Death, after all, is the common expectation from birth. Neither heroes nor cowards can escape it.

A man must be prepared to face life, as well as death, there's no escape from either.

This child was doomed from birth.

The woman was killed while she was heavily pregnant. She was expecting to give birth to a child soon.

We don't object to our date of birth, so why object to our date of death, which is just as much a matter of chance.

I was blessed with a birth and a death, and I guess I just want some say in between.
