"There are two absolutes; an inescapable pattern in the entire existence of Human kind:

 

the awareness of life,
the arrival of death.

 
   

Of the two, death is the most mysterious."

-Adrienne Nater

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

     

 


To himself everyone is immortal;
     he may know that he is going to die, but he can never know that he is dead.  ~Samuel Butler
