"I do not know which is better—life or death. It may be that death is the greatest gift that ever came from nature’s open hands. We do not know. There is one thing of which I am certain, and that is, that if we could live forever here, we would care nothing for each other. The fact that we must die, the fact that the feast must end, brings our souls together and treads the weeds from out the paths between our hearts. And so it may be, after all, that love is a little flower that grows on the crumbling edge of the grave. So it may be, that were it not for death, there would be no love, and without love all life would be a curse." -Robert Ingersoll, Reunion Address, 1895 #LifeAfterGod
