Creation destroys as it goes, throws down one tree for the rise of another. But ideal mankind would abolish death, multiply itself million upon million, rear up city upon city, save every parasite alive, until the accumulation of mere existence is swollen to a horror. – David Herbert Lawrence

Some people are so afraid to die that they never begin to live. – Henry Van Dyke

It is easy to go down into Hell night and day, the gates of dark Death stand wide but to climb back again, to retrace ones steps to the upper air – theres the rub, the task. – Virgil
