As
death, when we come to consider it closely, is the
true goal of our existence, I have formed during the
last few years such close relations with this best
and truest friend of mankind, that his image is not
only no longer terrifying to me, but is indeed very
soothing and consoling! And I thank my God for
graciously granting me the opportunity of learning
that death is the key which unlocks the door to our
true happiness.
-- Wolfgang Amadeus
