If we
really think that home is elsewhere and that this
life is a ''wandering to find home,'' why should we
not look forward to the arrival?
-- C. S. Lewis
1898-1963, British
Academic, Writer, Christian Apologist
It is
hard to have patience with people who say ''There is
no death'' or ''Death doesn't matter.'' There is
death. And whatever is matters. And whatever happens
has consequences, and it and they are irrevocable
and irreversible. You might as well say that birth
doesn't matter.
-- C. S. Lewis

Die
when I may, I want it said of me by those who knew
me best, that I always plucked a thistle and planted
a flower where I thought a flower would grow.
-- Abraham Lincoln
1809-1865, Sixteenth

When a
great man dies, for years the light he leaves behind
him, lies on the paths of men.
