“Nothing resembles a person as much as the way he dies.”
“Elizabeth, you resemble nothing so much as a hen trying to hatch a book.”
“Until a person finds something to die for, he or she has nothing to live for.”
“...when a person dies he only appears to die. He is still very much alive in the past, present, and future, always have existed, always will exist.”
“It looked like diamonds, rubies, emeralds; he could think of nothing beautiful which it did not resemble.”
“Yet, he thought, if I can die saying, "Life is so beautiful," then nothing else is important. If i can believe in myself that much, nothing else matters.”
