“Any man’s death diminishes me because I am involved in Mankinde; And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; It tolls for thee . . ..” John Donne
“This world is the nurse of all we know,
This world is the mother of all we feel,
And the coming of death is a fearful blow
To a brain unencompass’d by nerves of steel:
When all that we know, or feel, or see,
Shall pass like an unreal mystery.” Percy Shelly
“Thief —
how did you crawl into,
crawl down alone
into the death I wanted so badly and for so long.” Anne Sexton
