Death

#104 - Paulo Coelho on Death (Memento Mori)

Episode #104

“Death is our constant companion, and it is death that gives each person’s life its true meaning. But in order to see the real face of our death, we first have to know all of the anxieties and terrors that the simple mention of its name is able to evoke in any human being.”

#48 - Winston Churchill on Memento Mori: The Darkest Hour and What Death Teaches Us

“Then out spake brave Horatius,
The Captain of the Gate:
To every man upon this earth
Death cometh soon or late.
And how can man die better
Than facing fearful odds,
For the ashes of his fathers,
And the temples of his gods?”
— Thomas Babington Macaulay, Lays of Ancient Rome
