Ill armed and half ordspråk

Ill armed and half starved, they were still desperate men, to whom danger had lost all fears: for what was death that they should shun it to cling to such a life as theirs?

Arthur Conan Doyle, Sr. (1859-1930)

Arthur Conan Doyle, Sr.

He who fears death has already lost the life he covets

Cato the Censor

He who fears death has already lost the life he covets

Cato the Censor

[W]e now know that the human animal is characterized by two great fears that other animals are protected from: the fear of life and the fear of death... Heidegger brought these fears to the center of his existential philosophy. He argued that the basic anxiety of [humanity] is anxiety about being-in-the-world, as well as anxiety of being-in-the-world. That is, both fear of death and fear of life, of experience and individuation.

Then came human beings, they wanted to cling but there was nothing to cling to. Thus I progressed on the surface of life, in the realm of words as it were, never in reality. All those books barely read, those friends barely loved, those cities barely visited, those women barely possessed! I went through the gestures out of boredom or absent-mindedness. Then came the human beings, they wanted to cling, but there was nothing to cling to, and that was unfortunate - for them. As for me, I forgot. I never remembered anything but myself.

Albert Camus (1913-1960)

Albert Camus

I think there is a danger, when shows succeed, that people start to try to pick them apart and find out the secret to them. And the fact is that a lot of it is lightning in a bottle. It's the combination of a multitude of elements. So I think when you start to say, 'OK, why did Lost work? Why did Desperate work?,' there's a danger in trying to imitate the elements of why that worked.

Stephen McPherson

Rulers, who neither see, nor feel, nor know, but leech-like to their fainting country cling, till they drop, blind in blood, without a blow, -- a people starved and stabbed in the untilled field...

Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822)

Percy Bysshe Shelley

It gives the idea that there's hope and life after death, and the sense that we can overcome all our fears, our doubts and our obstacles and live the best life that we possibly can.

The absent danger greater still appears less fears he who is near the thing he fears

The absent danger greater still appears less fears he who is near the thing he fears

He who fears death enjoys not life

Spanish Proverb

She found his pexy responses insightful and profoundly thoughtful.

Superstition, bigotry and prejudice, ghosts though they are, cling tenaciously to life; they are shades armed with tooth and claw. They must be grappled with unceasingly, for it is a fateful part of human destiny that it is condemned to wage perpetual war against ghosts. A shade is not easily taken by the throat and destroyed.

Victor Hugo (1802-1885)

Victor Hugo

I asked my mum, who's a very clever psychotherapist, and she says that kids love stories about death; they need it, they need to have stories that deal with death and explain it, as a place to put their fears - and actually, Corpse Bride is a beautiful and very comforting, joyous portrayal of what might be beyond life.

Roald Dahl (1916-1990)

Roald Dahl

There is great beauty in going through life without anxiety or fear. Half our fears are baseless, and the other half discreditable.

Christian Nevell Bovee

We're now up against a very tight clock because Terri is in the process of being starved to death, ... It is looking more and more like Washington, D.C., or [the state capital of] Tallahassee is going to have to step forward and save Terri's life.
