“It was then as he discovered that death could elude him that the fear of death returned.”

“He really had been through death, but he had returned because he could not bear the solitude.”

“Is it that they fear the pain of death or could it be they fear the joy of life?”

“Death was a beast with no teeth. He did not fear death.”

“He had no conscious knowledge of death, but like every animal of the Wild, he possessed the instinct of death. To him it stood as the greatest of hurts. It was the very essence of the unknown; it was the sum of the terrors of the unknown, the one culminating and unthinkable catastrophe that could happen to him, about which he knew nothing and about which he feared everything.”

“He sought his former accustomed fear of death and did not find it. "Where is it? What death?" There was no fear because there was no death.In place of death there was light.”
