We say
that the hour of death cannot be forecast, but when
we say this we imagine that hour as placed in an
obscure and distant future. It never occurs to us
that it has any connection with the day already
begun or that death could arrive this same
afternoon, this afternoon which is so certain and
which has every hour filled in advance.
-- Marcel Proust
1871-1922, French
Novelist
Good
men must die, but death cannot kill their names.
-- Proverb
We
come and cry and that is life, we cry and go and
that is death.
-- Proverb
If
your time ain't come not even a doctor can kill you.
