“Every day, I am reminded that our life's journey is really about the people who touch us. When you die, it does not mean you lose to cancer. You beat cancer by how you live, why you live, and in the manner in which you live. So live. Live! Fight like hell. And when you get too tired to fight, then lay down and rest and let somebody else fight for you.” PeopleMeanDoeDiesFightingLosesHellOur LivesJourneyBeatsDown AndLaysTiredCancerBeat Cancer Author:Stuart Scott
“Man is mortal. Everyone has to die some day or the other. But one must resolve to lay down one's life in enriching the noble ideals of self-respect and in bettering one's human life. We are not slaves. Nothing is more disgraceful for a brave man than to live life devoid of self-respect.” MenHumansSelfDiesIdealsLaysBraveSlaveNobleMortalsLive LifeHuman LifeSelf RespectResolveBrave ManEnrichingDisgraceful Author:B.

“The victims of ennui paralyze all the grosser feelings by excess, and torpify all the finer by disuse and inactivity. Disgusted with this world, and indifferent about another, they at last lay violent hands upon themselves, and assume no small credit for the sang froid with which they meet death. But, alas! such beings can scarcely be said to die, for they have never truly lived.” WorldSaidFeelingsHandsLastsDiesThis WorldVictimLaysAssumingCreditViolentExcessIndifferentAlasDisgustedEnnuiInactivity Author:Charles Caleb Colton
“The statesman, lawyer, merchant, man of trade Pants for the refuge of some rural shade, Where all his long anxieties forgot Amid the charms of a sequester'd spot, Or recollected only to gild o'er And add a smile to what was sweet before, He may possess the joys he thinks he sees, Lay his old age upon the lap of ease, Improve the remnant of his wasted span. And having lived a trifler, die a man.” ThinkingMenMayLongAgeJoyDiesSweetAnxietyTradeLaysAddLawyerOld AgeSpotsEaseCharmRetirementShadePantsRefugeLapStatesmenMerchantsRemnants Book:Poems, with a memoir of the author Source: Poems, with a memoir of the author
