"The day of one's death is better than the day of one's birth!" - Ecclesiastes 7:1 

"I do not want to live forever." - Job 7:16 

    It is the very joy of this earthly life, to think that it will come to an end.

    The best moment of a Christian's life is his last one, for then he is nearest Heaven.

    The only people for whom I have felt any envy have been dying Christians.

    It is not a loss to die—it is a lasting, perpetual gain.

    "For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain." - Philippians 1:21

    "My desire is to depart and be with Christ, for that is far better!"  - Philippians 1:23
