Dying like a man?

' Then out spake brave Horatius,

The Captain of the Gate:

"To every man upon this earth

Death cometh soon or late.

And how can man die better

Than facing fearful odds,

For the ashes of his fathers,

And the temples of his Gods." '

-Lays of Ancient Rome

you dont die like a man

You die.

You can die happy or you can die with regrets, but death is lonely and equal for all

Don't worry about your death.

Worry about your life.

The saying YOLO (You only live once) is incorrect. You only die once. The goal is to live every moment up until that point.

I remember this quote from the show House that said:

You can live with dignity, we can't die with it.

I think it applies to this. You can live like a man, you can't die like a man.

Being shot by Clint Eastwood while Morgan Freeman narrates it, with musical score by John Williams.

Die the same way you entered the world - naked, screaming, and covered in someone else's blood.

It's not how you die, it's how you've lived until then.

Horns to the air!

You talking estate planning? You talking palliative care? You talking funeral arrangements? You talking going out in a blaze of glory? You talking preparing ourselves for the idea of death? You want to know how to have an impact on the world? You want to know how to be remembered? What you want to know here?

Let us endeavor so to live so that when we come to die even the undertaker will be sorry. Mark Twain

Or, simply don't give a shit.

Eh, when you're dead you're dead. You spasm a little then shit yourself. It's what you do in life that matters.

As long as I don't die slow and painfully or hung by a doorknob with cockring and a bunch of Thai ladyboys around me, I'll be happy.

by not worrying so much about how your genitalia affect your ability to die.

I heard this discussion before. "A woman dies with secrets. A man dies with legacy."

So make something of yourself and live with no regrets.
