He who doesn't fear death dies only once

Some people are so afraid to die that they never begin to live. - Henry Van Dyke
He who doesn't fear death dies only once. - Giovanni Falcone
People do not die for us immediately, but remain bathed in a sot of aura of life which bears no relation to true immortality but through which they continue to occupy our thoughts in the same way as when they were alive. It is as though they were traveling abroad. -Marcel Proust
Because I could not stop for Death,
He kindly stopped for me.
The Carriage held but just ourselves
And Immortality - Emily Dickinson
