More From William Shakespeare

Someone's killed 100,000 people. we're almost going, "well done! you killed 100,000 people? you must get up very early in the morning! i can't even get down the gym. your diary must look odd: 'get up in the morning, death, death, death, death, death, death, death - lunch - death, death, death - afternoon tea - death, death, death - quick shower ...' "

It is silliness to live when to live is torment.
Suicidal Silliness Torment
Having faith in the plan of salvation includes steadfastly refusing to be diverted from our true identities and responsibilities. in the brief season of our existence on earth we may serve as a plumber, professor, farmer, physician, mechanic, bookkeeper, or teacher. these are useful activities and honorable designations; but a temporary vocation is not reflective of our true identities. matthew was a tax collector, luke a physician, and peter a fisherman. in a salvational sense, 'so what!'
Teacher Self Esteem Responsibility
Death is a part of all our lives. whether we like it or not, it is bound to happen. instead of avoiding thinking about it, it is better to understand its meaning. we all have the same body, the same human flesh, and therefore we will all die. there is a big difference, of course, between natural death and accidental death, but basically death will come sooner or later. if from the beginning your attitude is 'yes, death is part of our lives,' then it may be easier to face.
Attitude Thinking Differences
Life rises out of death, death rises out of life; in being opposite they yearn to each other, they give birth to each other and are forever reborn. and with them, all is reborn, the flower of the apple tree, the light of the stars. in life is death. in death is rebirth. what then is life without death? life unchanging, everlasting, eternal?-what is it but death-death without rebirth?

You will die. you will not live forever. nor will any man nor any thing. nothing is immortal. but only to us is it given to know that we must die. and that is a great gift: the gift of selfhood. for we have only what we know we must lose, what we are willing to lose... that selfhood which is our torment, and our treasure, and our humanity, does not endure. it changes; it is gone, a wave on the sea. would you have the sea grow still and the tides cease, to save one wave, to save yourself?

Satire must not be a kind of superfluous ill will, but ill will from a higher point of view. ridiculous man, divine god. or else, hatred against the bogged-down vileness of average man as against the possible heights that humanity might attain.

I think the social faux par is probably what most people fear... more people fear public speaking than death and that's because we don't want to make a fool of ourselves. it's fundamental.
Thinking People Fundamentals
Criticism is necessary and useful; it is often indispensable; but it can never take the place of action, or be even a poor substitute for it. the function of the mere critic is of very subordinate usefulness. it is the doer of deeds who actually counts in the battle for life, and not the man who looks on and says how the fight ought to be fought, without himself sharing the stress and the danger.
