Death Seeker/Quotes

"Death? What is Death? It is the natural state of all things. It is life that is the aberration. It is life that should be feared, for it can go by with our work left undone, it can be wasted away on failure and indolence. Death is to be embraced."

- Daenyathos - "The Bullet and the Skull", Warhammer 40000

"Nor law, nor duty bade me fight, Nor public man, nor cheering crowds, A lonely impulse of delight Drove to this tumult in the clouds; I balanced all, brought all to mind, The years to come seemed waste of breath, A waste of breath the years behind In balance with this life, this death."

""The healthy human mind doesn't wake up in the morning thinking this is its last day on earth. But I think that's a luxury, not a curse. To know you're close to the end is a kind of freedom. Good time to take... inventory. Out-gunned. Outnumbered. Out of our minds. On a suicide mission. But the sand and rocks here stained with thousands of years of warfare... they will remember us. For this. Because out of all our vast array of nightmares, this is the one we choose for ourselves. We go forward like a breath exhaled from the earth. With vigor in our hearts and one goal in sight: We. Will. Kill him.""

- Capt. Price Call of Duty:Modern Warfare 2

"Hank Henshaw / Cyborg-Superman: Over the years, I have been detonated, burned and disintegrated, yet I continue to survive. The cosmic accident that cursed me with immortality murdered my friends and drove my wife mad. She was able to end her own life. I am not, Anti-Monitor. Anti-Monitor: When you have done what we have asked of you, I will not fail where Superman and Green Lantern have. I will kill you, Hank Henshaw. Henshaw: (a tear in his one human eye) Thank you."

- Green Lantern, Sinestro Corps War
