"No young man believes he shall ever die."
"Yet spirit immortal, the tomb cannot bind thee, But like thine own eagle that soars to the sun Thou springest from bondage and leavest behind thee A name which before thee no mortal hath won."

Immortality is the concept of eternal life and permanent resistance to death from natural causes. Some species possess "biological immortality" due to an apparent lack of the Hayflick limit.
"No young man believes he shall ever die."
"And now I think about it, I never really wanted to live forever. I just want to live well."
"Soren Kierkegaard, Christian Discourses 1848 Hong 1997 p. 205"
"I long to believe in immortality. I shall never be able to bid you an entire farewell. If I am destined to be happy with you here — how short is the longest life. I wish to believe in immortality — I wish to live with you forever."
"No, no, Im sure, My restless spirit never could endure To brood so long upon one luxury, Unless it did, though fearfully, espy A hope beyond the shadow of a dream."
"I dont want to achieve immortality through my work; I want to achieve immortality through not dying. I dont want to live on in the hearts of my countrymen; I want to live on in my apartment."
