Many people die at twenty five and aren't buried until they are seventy five.

Fear not death for the sooner we die, the longer we shall be immortal.

That bodies should be lent us, while they can afford us pleasure, assist us in acquiring knowledge, or doing good to our fellow creatures, is a kind and benevolent act of God - when they become unfit for these purposes and afford us pain instead of pleasure-instead of an aid, become an encumbrance and answer none of the intentions for which they were given, it is equally kind and benevolent that a way is provided by which we may get rid of them. Death is that way.

We must, indeed, all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately.

How much more than necessary do we spend in sleep, forgetting that the sleeping fox catches no poultry, and that there will be sleeping enough in the grave, as Poor Richard says.

Fear not Death; for the sooner we die, the longer shall we be immortal.

Death takes no bribes.

I saw few die of hunger; of eating, a hundred thousand.

When Death puts out our Flame, the Snuff will tell,/ If we were Wax, or Tallow by the Smell./ At a great Pennyworth, pause a while.
