My heart tells me that he has some part to play yet, for good or ill, before the end; and when that comes, the pity of Bilbo may rule the fate of many - yours not least.
  J.R.R. Tolkien

en Immortality - a fate worse than death.

en If I had my life over again I should form the habit of nightly composing myself to thoughts of death. I would practice, as it were, the remembrance of death.

  Muriel Spark

  Simone de Beauvoir
