“No one is actually dead until the ripples they cause in the world die away...”

“...no-one is finally dead until the ripples they cause in the world die away... The span of someone's life, they say, is only the core of their actual existence.”

“A man's anger can never age and fade away, not until he dies. The dead alone feel no pain.”

“You are never truly together with one you love until the person in question is dead and actually inside you.”

“The dead person is not truly dead until the last person who rememebers them dies.”

“It may be that I lead the life I've planned for myself it may affect others; the effect may be no greater than the ripple caused by a stone thrown in a pond, but one ripple causes another and that one a third; it's just possible that a few people will see that my way of life offers happiness and peace, and that they in their turn will teach what they have learned to others.”
