Gregory Maguire Quote
Who first, upon sensing the backward rush of memory said to signal the moment of death, was able to telegraph this apprehension to the family gathered around? Maybe the original gentleman descended from ape said the equivalent of falling out of tree to his common-law ape wife, and she interpreted his words as just as he left for the dusty world beyond, his whole life passed before his eyes. Then he hit the ground. After all, falling out of the tree is the first and the last thing we do.
