“We are buried when we're born. The world is a place of graves occupied and graves potential. Life is what happens while we wait for our appointment with the mortician.”
“We start our sometimes tedious, sometimes exciting, often times sad and stressful march to the grave the moment we're born, so it might as well be a march worth remembering.”
“After all, what's a life, anyway? We're born, we live a little while, we die.”
“We all go through life as puzzled monkeys. The minute we think we're any more than that, we've made a grave mistake. We're just trying to gain some meaning of it all, some understanding. The only thing we can do is buy the ticket, take the ride. And offer our barbaric yawps to the world...”
“our willingness to wait reveals the value we place on the object we're waiting for.”
“We are given to the great, for great purpose, to great ends. We are given to the grave, for grave purposes, to grave ends.”
