I was giving up. I would have given up - if a voice hadn't made itself heard in my heart. The voice said I will not die. I refuse it. I will make it through this nightmare.

Yes, so long as God is with me, I will not die. Amen. β¨ Yann Martel, Canongate Books (2007). Life of Pi (Illustrated): Deluxe Illustrated Edition, p.158, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
