Men fear death as children fear to go in the dark; and as that natural fear in children is increased by tales, so is the other.

It is as natural to die as to be born; and to a little infant, perhaps, the one is as painful as the other.

Men fear Death, as children fear to go in the dark; and as that natural fear in children is increased with tales, so is the other.

It is not what men eat but what they digest that makes them strong; not what we gain but what we save that makes us rich; not what we read but what we remember that makes us learned; not what we preach but what we practice that makes us Christians.

Wise men make more opportunities than they find.

Of all the wonders that I yet have heard,
It seems to me most strange that men should fear;
Seeing that death, a necessary end,
Will come when it will come.
