 But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying, / I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.

 Trust no future, however pleasant! Let the dead past bury its dead! Act, act in the living present! Heart within and God overhead.
  Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

 Excess of grief for the dead is madness; for it is an injury to the living, and the dead know it not

 Say: Who gives you sustenance from the heaven and the earth? Or Who controls the hearing and the sight? And Who brings forth the living from the dead, and brings forth the dead from the living? And Who regulates the affairs? Then they will say: Allah. Say then: Will you not then guard (against evil)? / This then is Allah, your true Lord; and what is there after the truth but error; how are you then turned back? / Thus does the word of your Lord prove true against those who transgress that they do not believe.

 Wherefore I praised the dead which are already dead more than the living which are yet alive.

 We must not permit our respect for the dead or our sympathy for the living to lead us into an act of injustice to the balance of the living.
  Davy Crockett
