Quando si muore si ha ben altro da fare che di pensare alla morte.

Spero di essere riuscito anch’io ad accogliere la morte come “Sorella Morte”, dalla quale nessun vivente può scappare. Se in vita sono stato degno, se avrò portato la mia croce così come mi era stato chiesto di fare, ora sono dal Creatore. Ora sono dal Dio mio, dal Dio dei miei padri, nella sua Casa indistruttibile. Lui, il nostro Dio, l’unico vero Dio, è la causa prima e il fine di ogni cosa. Davanti alla morte nulla ha più senso se non lui. Perciò, sebbene non c’è bisogno di dirlo, poiché Lui sa tutto, come ho ringraziato voi voglio ringraziare anche Lui. Devo tutta la mia vita a Dio, ogni cosa bella. La Fede mi ha accompagnato e non sarei quello che sono senza la mia Fede. Lui ha cambiato la mia vita, l’ha raccolta, ne ha fatto qualcosa di straordinario, e lo ha fatto nella semplicità della mia vita quotidiana. Non stancatevi mai, fratelli miei, di servire Dio e di comportarvi secondo i suoi comandamenti, poiché nulla ha senso senza di Lui e perché ogni nostra azione verrà giudicata e decreterà chi continuerà a vivere in eterno e chi invece dovrà morire.

Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything - all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment and failure - these things just fall away in the fear of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked.

Cercai di percorrere col pensiero la rivoluzione attraverso la quale passeremo tutti, il cuore che s'arresta, il cervello che rinuncia al pensiero, i polmoni che cessano di aspirare la vita. Anch'io subirò uno sconvolgimento analogo: morirò, un giorno. Ma ogni agonia è diversa; i miei sforzi per figurarmi quella di Antinoo non pervenivano che a una costruzione priva di valore: era morto solo.

تذكر أنك ستموت فهذه أفضل وسيلة أعرفها لتجنب الوقوع في فخ التفكير بأن لديك شيئا لتخسره. أنت عارياً بالأصل وليس هناك أي سبب لعدم اتباع قلبك.

siam forti quando siamo risoluti e pronti a morire

For the past thirty-three years, I have every morning and asked myself, 'if today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?'. And whenever the answer has been 'no' for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.
