My
idea of walking into the jaws of death is marrying
some woman who has lost three husbands.
-- Kin Hubbard
1868-1930, American
Humorist, Journalist
A
belief in hell and the knowledge that every ambition
is doomed to frustration at the hands of a skeleton
have never prevented the majority of human beings
from behaving as though death were no more than an
unfounded rumor.
-- Aldous Huxley

Ignore
death up to the last moment; then, when it can't be
ignored any longer, have yourself squirted full of
morphia and shuffle off in a coma. Thoroughly
sensible, humane and scientific, eh?
-- Aldous Huxley
1894-1963, British
Author
Now, a
corpse, poor thing, is an untouchable and the
process of decay is, of all pieces of bad manners,
the vulgarest imaginable. For a corpse is, by
definition, a person absolutely devoid of savoir
vivre.
