What is the most powerful and moving phrase you have ever heard or read?

An old man at the airport told me this after I commented on my old fear of airplanes:

"You know, we look back on fearful times, and often wonder how we could have been afraid in the first place, because we are wiser and stronger now. So we go along, facing new times and braving new challenges, slowly letting our fears away. Until one day, when every fear but one is gone, the strongest of all: death. But once we are ready to look back again, it's always too late. Don't fear death, son. Embrace it.

And then, live free."
