“She's not trying to prepare us for her death. She's trying to prepare us for her life. For what she has left of it." ~ Slammed”
“Death is simple. Life is messy. Give me life, the more complicated the better.”
“If you love her as much as you claim you do, why can’t you let her be happy? She’s made her choice,” Lucas asked.“It’s because I love her that I’m trying to protect her from you. I could give her a better life in the heavens, away from danger,” Clyde fired back.Lucas chuckled, further maddening Clyde. “Maybe you could give her a better life, but you don’t love her. You know nothing of love, angel. If she chose you, I’d let her go because I love her. Above my needs come hers. That’s love.”
“Preparing for death is one of the most empowering things you can do. Thinking about death clarifies your life.”
“The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”
