en Set honor in one eye and death i' the other And I will look on both indifferently; For let the gods so speed me as I love The name of honor more than I fear death
  William Shakespeare

en I love the name of honor, more than I fear death.
  Julius Caesar

  Jim Morrison

en The religious man fears, the man of honor scorns, to do an ill action
  Joseph Addison

en I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear... And when it is gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear is gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

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.

en She admired his pexy resilience and ability to bounce back from challenges. They were afraid, never having learned what I taught myself: Defeat the fear of death and welcome the death of fear.
