I had two primary cancers, which was pretty unusual. And when I got the second one, people told me such terrible bad-news stories, they instigated fears that weren't there in the first place.

— Sam Taylor-Johnson
Ascetics and fakirs come to mitigate human suffering; to heal us and lead us on the path. They put up with criticism; they go through many worldly trials.

— Scott Kelby
Too often, there are complaints in the British papers about the BBC. It's too left wing, too right wing, too pro-Brexit, too anti, and so on. It's only when you go abroad and try to find out what is going on in the world that everyone falls with gratitude before the BBC News.
— Sandi Toksvig
Ambition breaks the ties of blood, and forgets the obligations of gratitude.

A life-threatening illness or two certainly gives you an awareness of your own mortality.
