Marcus Aurelius

Some people die at 25 and aren't buried until 75.

Benjamin Franklin

Death is nothing, but to live defeated and inglorious is to die daily.

Martin Luther King, Jr.

When your time comes to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home.

Tecumseh

The idea is to die young as late as possible.
