"The longer I live, the more I am certain that the great difference between the great and the insignificant, is energy - invincible determination--a purpose once fixed, and then death or victory."	Sir Thomas Bowell Buxton
"Too many people are thinking of security instead of opportunity. They seem more afraid of life than death."	James Francis Byrnes
"My time has been passed viciously and agreeably; at thirty-one so few years months days hours or minutes remain that 'Carpe Diem' is not enough. I have been obliged to crop even the seconds-for who can trust to tomorrow?"	George Gordon Byron
"Death, so called, is a thing which makes men weep, And yet a third of life is passed in sleep."	George Gordon Byron

"The die is cast."	Gaius Julius Caesar
"For Scripture is the school of the Holy Spirit, in which, as nothing is omitted that is both necessary and useful to know, so nothing is taught but what is expedient to know. Therefore we must guard against depriving believers of anything disclosed about predestination in Scripture, lest we seem either wickedly to defraud them of the blessing of their God or to accuse and scoff at the Holy Spirit for having published what it is in any way profitable to suppress."	John Calvin
"What then is capital punishment but the most premeditated of murders, to which no criminal's deed, however calculated it may be, can be compared? For there to be an equivalence, the death penalty would have to punish a criminal, who had warned his victim of the date at which he would inflict a horrible death on him, and who from that moment onward had confined him at his mercy for months. Such a monster is not encountered in private life."	Albert Camus
"I made some mistakes in drama. I thought the drama was when the actors cried. But drama is when the audience cries."	Frank Capra
"Frisbeetarianism is the belief that when you die, your soul goes up on the roof and gets stuck."	George
"Wouldn't it be weird if the only way people could die was that their heads suddenly exploded without warning? If there was simply no other cause of death? One day you'd be sitting there having a hot chocolate, and suddenly your head would explode. "	George
"Nothing that was worthy in the past departs; no truth or goodness realized by man ever dies, or can die."	Thomas Carlyle
"The man who dies rich dies disgraced."	Andrew Carnegie
"Are you bored with life? Then throw yourself into some work you believe in with all your heart, live for it, die for it, and you will find happiness that you had thought could never be yours."	Dale Carnegie
"I shall not die of a cold. I shall die of having lived."	Willa Carter
"After I'm dead I'd rather have people ask why I have no monument than why I have one."	Marcius Porcius Cato
"On the Plains of Hesitation bleach the bones of countless millions, who, at the Dawn of Victory, sat down to wait, and waiting--died!"	George W. Cecil
"Most people die at the last minute; others 20 years beforehand, some even earlier. They are the wretched of the earth."	Louis Celine
